He initially listed the rod and reel for $700. I told him that one can buy the brand new rod at MSRP $500 and $100 for the reel. After that, he changed the combo for $495 for more than a month now. At one that I proposed to trade my CT286 + $100 for his CT290 but he asked for $200. I then told him I am not crazy to pay $200 for an extra 6" inches of rod. I ended selling my CT286 for $325 and bought an excellent CT290 for $300 last week. Some people are greedy :-) Instead of losing $100, I made $25.
