Well, assuming the ad is legitimate, it would be an absolute steal considering these rods retail new around $650. With 2 days left to go, though, you can fully expect the current bid amount of $76 will go up SIGNIFICANTLY.

I would agree with Hairstacker, it will go up significantly as hardly anyone bids on items until the last few hours. Set a reminder in your calendar or whatever you need to do and Add This Item to your Watch List on eBay. Go back and look at it a couple hours before it ends, and if the price is not too high, drop a bid in with a minute or so to go. You also need to realize that anyone else that wants this rod will be doing the same thing.

My 2ยข worth. :)

Lil Striper,
Bill posted that there are now 400 registered members on this BB let alone all the lurkers. You've just let the cat out and now all of us will be checking on this same rod. ](*,)
Actually, 399 as I am working on refinishing a cane stick that is just taking up way too much time and $$$.
Very nice rod. Hope you get it at the price you want.
Best,
Quinn

Well, I just checked it again and, with 14 hours left to go, it's sitting at $300. I wouldn't be terribly surprised if it goes for over $400.
