Hey Guys.  

Just trying to upgrade my gear and I'm looking at some used rods and I can't find much info on what they should be worth.  Just want an opinion if any of you know

St Croix - MBC70MF  $75

St Croix - RC71MF    $75

St Croix - MBS70MHF - $110

 

Any help would be great. Thanks guys

Take the new price and multiply by .65 if the rod is in great shape.

Make sure you check every guide and dings on the rod itself. As for price, don't buy anything $20 cheaper than buying brand new. I would agree with staffman price should be 35% off the brand new price....I set mine at 30%. There are some steals out there if you get lucky.
