I got both of mine for less than $200 new. I just watched the auction site like a hawk and waited for promos.

I really want one of the 9.1's for my skipping rod. That'll probably be the next thing.

My buddy I believe still has 3 of the 9s that he is looking to sell for a very good price.

Does this mean that a new Zillion may be in the mix since prices seem to be dropping on the current model?

Lefties? If they're lefties hit me up.

Oh man...they are righties!

Oh, the HUMANITY!

Where are these SV103 right handers lurking??? Lefted handed fisherman searching for a right handed reel (as always) here...

Would love to see if they could bring back the original Zillion frame and update it fully...

I would still be fine with the Steez A/Tatula 100 style variant Zillion 100. Same spool would be fine, 7 and 8 gear ratios, something else cool, who knows. I will have 3 generations of Zillions if they release another, I even still enjoy the original Zillion TWS reels for heavier duty applications...

All I wanna know is where were all you SV103 groupies when I was selling mine a few months ago - Had 5 or 5 LH mint with bearing and LW upgrades etc and I had to practically give them away

Groupie here...don't know if I can handle anymore...I am at 11 now...6XS and 5H.

If they were RH, I am sure I would have been interested. I love that frame. Aside from the SV103s, I have TDZs in many varieties (103, 105, custom, R, R+, Ito), Air Metal TDX reels, OG Zillions (regular, anniversary, and J-Dream) OG Fuegos, and Megabass IP reels to go with the body style. Then there is the Alphas/SV105/Sol platform that I love. LOL

I wouldn't be surprised if they somehow at some time bring the TD-Z frame back. I mean, this year they are reintroducing the Alphas in a 70 model. That frame has been around since 2004.

Yeah I still have several OG Steez, some TD-Z's, a Personal Order even, but have been picking up some of the newer Steez models. The SV103's were fine reels, but on the heavy side, especially comparing to the 5-6oz Steez's - I also sold a few J-Dreams for the same reason - now those were some fine a$$ reels . Just an effort to lighten up in general across the board for me is the only reason I sold off most of my big 36mm frames.
