A couple of good quality Shimano fishing reels for your consideration:
I'm offering these items for sale on more then one forum so I'll base purchasing priority on the time stamp of the first person to post I'll take it without contingencies and a follow up e-mail.
Please ask any questions prior to making a purchase commitment. My top priority is a hassle free transaction. I'll be more than happy to provide additional / higher resolution photos and discuss questions via PM, e-mail, or over the phone. I've done my best to accurately describe the condition of the item I'm offering for sale, but please inquire if there are issues of particular importance to you.
I will accept payment via USPS Money Order, or PayPal ("Purchase" type only, I will not accept PayPal Gift) with a confirmed address per the pricing listed. That being said, please be aware that if you have less then 5 positives as a buyer on itrader (or any negatives) I will prefer a US postal money order. I will ship via USPS w/signature confirmation and provide insurance to CONUS only.
I'm not interested in any trades at this time.
I reserve the right to not do business with any individual without explanation. All sales are as is, where is and without warranty (except as provided by the manufacturer). All sales are final. By purchasing this item you are stating that you are 18 years of age or older and abiding by all local, state and federal laws concerning the purchase, transportation and possession of this item.
Shimano Calcutta TE401 Bait Casting Reel: This reel is used and comes with the instruction manual in the photograph below. I purchased this reel in like new condition several years back. I have only used it a few times since, for fall Chinook (King Salmon) fishing. In 2013 I had 175 yards of Tuf Line XP Indicator, Multicolor line put on, with a dacron backer. I've had the reel out twice since. There are some minor cosmetic signs of use, as can be seen in the pictures, but it's been well cared for and looks great (in my opinion). This is the best reel I've owned, and to the best of my knowledge it is in good working order and ready to go. I'm selling it because my fishing partner and I have transitioned to line counter reels.
Please note that this is a left handed reel (which is the correct reel for a right handed angler, in my wholly unimportant opinion, especially so for cast and retrieve applications

Here is a review I found. It's on the right handed version, but is otherwise directly applicable: http://www.calfishing.com/reviews/reels/shimano_calcutta_te/index.html
