I've got a 24p Raker that a guy wants.  I asked $175 for the prop straight cash....he wants to trade me a reel and some cash.  He has several of the older green Curado 200 series (2-3 yrs old) that he says are in good shape.  OR....he has a 5600C4 Ambassadeur on a flippin stick that he says he's used twice.  Question is:  Which one would you guys take?  (I know the shimano posse is gonna come swooping in on this one  )  

I was thinking of telling him $100 and one Curado or $125 and the Abu.  Opinions?

i think if you can get 100 bucks and the curado that is a good deal.  check it out first and see just how used it is, if its in ok-good condition, do it if he will.

good luck
