Good price for Shimano-Curado?

Looks like a great price but I don't much about the reel.  Is it a good reel for the price?

Wow, that went fast.  It was their deal of the day.  You might give them a call.  I was able to order one.  I need another reel so I thought I take a shot at this one.  Hope its a good reel.

i think they are discounting curados that are no longer made in Jp?

Yeah, from what I understand they have completely redesigned it and all of the older models are now heavily discounted.

Hope its a good reel.

It's a great reel! I have 2 E7's and love them.

I believe the new ones a the G series. And they are lighter as well as made with better components. I just text the Shimano rep to get the specifics.

His response to the difference between the E's and G's is "Handles, drag star, and new ones are made in Malaysia."

You know those malaysians.  Good food n gambling.  Reels, not so much lol.  J,k. Sure it's fine
