I ordered a Curado 100DSV from an eBay store for $150(shipping included), so its $100 after the rebate.

Thought you couldn't buy them from Ebay? Hows that work?

Yep, it works if they are a Shimano dealer and the one i bought from is.

If affordablefishing.com is an authorized Shimano dealer in the US, thats a great deal...

Yep, read the fine print and called them before purchasing it to be sure, my rebate check is on the way

That is an awesome deal. I've been wanting to get one of the 300 series for offshore trips. It would be ideal for dorado.

That is good deal as well for $150 be sure that you are not getting a refurb many ebay stores are selling refurbs

I bought a Curado off of Ebay and had nothing but problems with it. To this day I suspect I bought a fake Shimano reel. I am sure if you are dealing with an authorized dealer there will not be a problem.

I just sent Adam at Affordablefishing.com and email regarding the rebate. He said they are an authorized shimano dealer, but Shimano will not offer the rebate if the reel is purchased at a price substantially lower than the msrp. They offer the curados at $150ish but said that because that is 25% less than the $199 msrp, that Shimano won't honor the rebate. Does anyone have a check in hand from Shimano from their purchase at affordablefishing.com or can anyone shed some more light on this?

PP- thats what i was told by Adam also but i figured the heck w/it i'll try anyway and sent it in. According to Shimano my check is on the way.
If for some reason i don't get it and they catch the mistake or whatever, oh well, $150 for the Curado is still a steal IMO.

I just ordered a big 300 based on you're affordablefishing.com info. This thing is $249.99 at basspro and I paid 189.99. Dont' know about a rebate yet. Did your reel arrive ok?

TexasGringo · Post by **TexasGringo** » Thu Feb 21, 2008 8:26 am

Yep got the reel brand new, in the box.
They didn't ship it for 3 days which irked me but oh well they're in Louisiana so it still got here pretty quick.

Great thanks! I can't wait to try that thing out.

Did you get your rebate? I am about to order a curado 300 from affordable.com and was curious?
