The latest sale thread
It's the same thing that happen to me in the summer. If the deal looks too good to be true, its a scam. Most are doing what is called "chargeback scam" or using stolen credit card. See my post on March 8th -

Dobyns - Upgrade or Stay with Champion 734C
@fishnkamp I hear ya I am already in the market for a jig rod. Now I have to look for two more. The monkey bait loves me ! The funds are set for the jig (just trying to decide/waiting for good sale). I'm hoping that there will be a good sale from American Legacy for the GLX/NRX. I also saw a Gloomis GLX 854C (green) for as it's in my budget on one of the forums. That might be a ticket. If it breaks, I can use the warranty service to replace using G. LOOMIS XPEDITOR SERVICE. Decision is not final as I am considering the Dobyns DX745 and Legend Elite 7'1 MHXF For that spinnerbait rod - I might just stick with the 734C since it's a DO IT ALL Rod. Just need more research/call dobyns and others to chim in to convinced me to stay 734C or move to DX744.
