I'm glad I bought mine locally for $100...   

Ouch

But I have been here for you

I did pay more than $80 for mine to.

I still am not sure why everyone has started to discount them.

Dude!  You've totally been there for me (and everyone else who enjoys the GS series - thx)

Probably because they snap in half so easy...

cause they're junk! JK

Mine had two eyes blow up for no apparent reason, and the stupid little plug on the butt end fell out about 2 days after i got it.

they're great rods if you have no issues with the eyes failing....

Mine is in for warranty for the eyes right now.

I had 4 fall out at shelter cove for the opener.

I have warrantied 2 for black ab and they always take care of warranties fairly fast.

Both of mine snapped in half while pulling on a snag (not reefing on it...)

You brute, you. Any way the new baidarkas dont have inserts in the eyes anymore. Jim's brand new trevala had an insert come out at GS4. Those models are probabaly heavily discounted because of the problems but still warrantied. So i think what is for sale here, according to the specs the young man provided, is the newer model with the upgraded eyes. They list for 119.00 at most tackle shops
