That seems likely. About the only time Shimano allows things to go on sale. Wonder what they'll replace it with?

Great deal on them. If I didn't already own 2 of them, I'd be all over it.

I wonder if TW would match the $450 price? The reels are listed at $499 at TW this morning.

Just called TW, and the salesguy there said he could match the $499.99 but not the $449.99.

It had to come sometime, its pushing 10 years old. but I hope its to replace it with a newer model that's even better.
