I just received # 1010.
 I carefully opened it to see how it worked and found it to be kind of hard to turn and the push button was difficult to push .
Anyone else open theirs up ?
Regardless , for 29 Dollars Shipped and the Limited Number of these it is a DEAL!
Just noticed one on E-Bay already asking 80 Dollars .
   Profiteering already in Action!!!!!

UPDATE ON THESE REELS

 Going to have to put these in the CRAP REEL DEPARTMENT .
They are PURDY but not usable as a Casting Reel like the old ones . I recently put one on a Rod to just see how they worked an well not too Good as you can not hold the line when pushing the button and it goes Haywire when you attempt to cast. I of course tore in to it to see  why and discovered  the reason . Will post in the CRAP REEL DEPT soon with my findings.
 GREAT REEL TO STORE on THE WALL but not worth a CRAP TO CAST .
REALLY DISAPPOINTED !!!!
