Daiwa SS 3000 - back again

Surfing around and discovered these reels are back for Daiwas 50th anniversary...

Are they selling like hot cakes in the UK ?

Anyone tempted to get some ???

few more than 1000 made then...
Northern Exposure

there was a finite amount made, 2K or 3K can't quite remember, Daiwa have been delivering them in dribs and drabs....
richchappy

i heard they were making 1000 but now its more like 6 times that,
Michael

Daiwa are a business, if people want them they arent gonna stop making them. Its like turning down free cash to them.
Northern Exposure

ok i've asked Daiwa and the official qty is between 1000 and 2000 and that includes Daiwa France and Germany.....so pretty limited.

sorry I dont believe them - they've had the tooling etc done and they are outselling any other reel, I expect them to supply until theres no longer a demand.

I bet in six months leslies will still have them and they'll be 160 quid or something
Michael

Yeah, the fad will be over soon when all the originals become worthless because theres just as many as any other reel.
neil_hubber

still the best reel on the market though...

The originals will always be worth more... they were built differently

agreed steve, and i still prefer the origanals had a look at them in the tackle box, very nice though, but they dont have that old school feel or heritage!!

whoever said there exactly the same as the old ones must be wrong!!!
