Post by old bamboo »

Hi Guy's'
I've been offered this Orvis Odyssey 2 reel by some one, they want $165.00 for it' in very good operating shape, w/ original soft case, made in the USA stamped on the bottom of the reel foot. I've never tried one, have read very good things about this model..the seller is overseas..very reliable seller, no problems there. Sure would appreciate anyone's feedback, on this reel, in relation to the price..
Thanks,
Robert..

Looks to be in good shape. I have seen these sell anywhere between $125 (well used) to $225 in mint condition. At $165 I think you are getting a good deal.
