I know they get excluded from TW's sales and The Tackle Trap doesn't carry them.  Does any online retailer ever put them on sale or do I just have to pay the full price?  Thanks in advance.  

I bought a conquest used yet it was wrapped in what appeared to be factory shrink. Saved at least $180 and made it possible for me.

Of course. Like many other luxury items, they are put on sale constantly. The most discount I've seen is the GLX line, 40% off last Christmas. But sorry I can't tell you how to find the discount/coupon; you'll have to search the Internet. I just want to let people know, don't pay full retail. 

I would call ALF and see what they might do .

Well, they aren't putting them on sale as often as they did pre-pandemic.  Covid is apparently over, and we should continue to see great sales like we did for Christmas, which was the best in years IMO.  Loomis will catch up....

Careful, you'll get a warning for suggesting that place....mere mention of that site is 'promoting' it apparently.

I remember when the Tackle Trap was discounting Loomis and calling them rep samples .

You'll notice they weren't a Loomis dealer very long after that ploy.

 

another site had a couple Loomis sales they sent out via email last year to select people 30% off and then another for 25%.  I jumped on one of them and picked up 2 NRX+.

They got Loomis/Shimano back on board for when they reopen is what I read on another forum in the coming months.

I’ve always bought my Loomis rods at a small local shop.  Never paid anywhere close to retail.

Im not even old but man the world has changed. Just call around and directly ask for a discount until someone says ok. You will find one. 

I bought one of the Loomis Travel rods a few years ago from ALF during a Black Friday sale that was on sale for about $100 off. Even with our exchange rate (im from Canada) I was still ahead.
