Does anybody have or know anything about the Lamiglas Competitor series' rods?

MSRP (from Lamiglas' website) is $112.  Retailers sell the rod for $85-$90.  

Yet there is an eBay retailer (Richards Supply) that routinely sells these rods BRAND NEW for $35.  

What is really odd is that the models they offer do not appear on Lamiglas' website (the CC 665 and the CC 603), unless they are New Old Stock or something.

The CC685 seems like a great spinnerbait rod (MH power, 6'-6" long, fast action) or even a good "all-around" rod.

Any thoughts?

The Competitor series is awesome.

Unlike Loomis, vendors can sell the Lami rods for whatever price they want, hence the price difference. The cheapest in store price I see is about $65.

As the proud owner of one, I can tell you that they are remarkably sensitive.  I also believe they used to sport Fuji guides, but the newer own sport pacific bay guides.

I have the CC664 model.

I also think you are probably right about those models being old stock and most likely discontinued would be my best guess.

At $35, that is a steal of a deal anywhere. 8-)
