TW is running its bass master classic sale, and it has some rep example rods for 25% off. Anyone ever purchased them before, are you like new or it shows good use on the rod?

They are about as new as a used rod gets. Buy with confidence.

I've purchased two Loomis rep sample rods. One was an NRX - it looked absolutely new and unused, also eligible for the wild card. The second was a CBR906 - the blank was perfect but the cork looked like it had been handled just a bit - but NO problem...

Sup Goose. It is good to hear from you again.

 

From the other topic, what is a wild card replacement?

From the other topic, what is a wild card replacement? 

 

From the Loomis web site:  Wild Card: A service program offering a onetime, no questions asked, free, over the counter replacement. Only applicable to current rod models of NRX, Pro4x GLX and GL2 .

 

Details are on the Loomis web site:  Wild Card Registration

 

To register the rod, and get the Wild Card, you need to have a receipt from an authorized Loomis seller. A receipt from TW should work nicely.

a'ight, Looks like I am getting a NRX for this year...haha! 

I bought a rep sample NRX that was damaged from TheH00kUpTackle.com. They never sent me the rod because they didn't feel comfortable with the condition it was in. Instead, they ordered a brand new NRX from Loomis. It took an extra week to work out the issues, but I saved $200 on a new rod!!
