I've not got any fishing gear on there, but I've sold a LOT of stuff on eBay over lockdown - very often at about 3.15 in the morning.... drunk buying anyone?

I’ve just send a krimp tool and krimps, second hand and someone has listed it for £55.

Are people serious ? Some of the prices I’ve seen these last few weeks are laughable

There really are too many people out there with more money than sense. However it's their money so let them throw it away like a drunken sailor in port.

I had one for many years. Tough as old boots, very versatile but as mentioned the tri post was a flawed design. Pretty much useless if using Delks as they would all go off at once if any sensitivity was used no matter how hard you did the tri post up.

In the end it was the excessive usage costs that put me off. Hiring a team of Sherpa’s to carry it just got too expensive

That pic is my one. It's ok but I don't think the tri post design is the best.

These are going for silly money..... I’d be watching closely and sicking it on- could be nearer £300/350 average at this rate!

Another thing I’ve noticed is the Weston spools for SS3s or 5000Ts going for £70 each when they come up..... same price as new & they’re in stock at Weston.... madness
