PENN Reels and misc.

[NJ Marty]

I paid $100 for this lot of reels spools and misc parts. The Penn 970 is a good one, I should be able to get $60 or so for it. The other items should sell ok. I should do ok with this purchase.

GReat Score!...I spent 100 on ONE Penn real a few years back. Looks like clean stuff too!

$100 is a steal. This stuff gets rarer every single day. Have a hunch those parts are the real treasure. Old reels bring premium prices here. You done good...

That Penn stuff is hot, especially in good shape. You will do very, very well

I grew up within bicyclying distance of Penn reels. Wish I still had some of the reels I had as a kid.

What size or model rather is that Penn spinning reel? I recently had to buy a new spool for my 7500s.

Looks to be in good shape for an older reel. When it comes to Penn spinning reels, the S and SS series were the best. They were built better than the newer ones they make today and will last a lifetime with proper care. The 4th and 5th generation SS series of today are nothing but Chinese junk, imo.
