Not from an auction site, but it's a gem.
Just picked up a brand new Zillion type R. Price wasn't a steal but for me, it's worth it considering this is one of the few reels that I don't feel the need to change or upgrade anything.
Looks like I got the last one as they're showing out of stock now.

For other old zillion lover, they also have a new Daiwa Zillion 100SHA as $271.99 which is almost same price as TW's SV103.

They pulled a 'bait n switch' on me with that type R, they didn't actually have it in stock. Told me the 100sha was in stock if I wanted to buy that instead.
Those guys can go kick rocks.

Yeah, good chance it's a demo reel or something. And with it being on sale, probably can't return it. No worries, there's other zillions in the sea. $270 will buy you a nice used or new zillion of almost any variety.

Just scored this Zara spook I've never seen before.
Old made in USA packaging, Holographic body, double seam, with bright orange eyes (looking up?!), no orange belly.

I went on a jdm lure spending spree last night & this old $5 eBay lure has me more pumped than any of it \:D/

She has been there for a while...

If you really want it, you might be able to negotiate some discount... that seller is nice.

Looks like a 50th Anniversary Zillion, but the handle is different. Has anyone heard or seen this model, the Tsunekichi Edition?

Tsunekichi is a jdm lure company. Looks like the 7.3 limited jdm zillion with an HLC handle. I never liked that chrome/aluminum strip across the thumbrest on those, but no doubt it's a good model zillion. I've always considered them the jdm version of the type R.
That's pretty cool that there were only 7 of them made. Good find!
