I have 2-BRAND NEW, DAIWA TOURNAMENT BALLISTIC RODS that i'd like to trade for the GREEN version. Brand new means, bought from the store and sat in the closet, one still has the hang tags. Both have the ballistic nylon type, 3 compartment zippered bags. Theses are NEW FACTORY rods with the weighted butt cap. I am looking to trade for the same RODS but the "GREEN" colored version. NOT looking to sell these outright.
I am located in Hawaii, I plan on shipping them USPS 3 day Priority. If the USPS online calculator is correct, shipping both in a PVC tube should run $40 maybe $50 bucks, NOT including insurance. INSURANCE is a "MUST" for me on anything over $100, so these will be shipped with $900 worth of insurance. If you are interested reply to the thread and send me a PM. I can text you pics. I have positive feedback on different websites so feel free to ask.
He knows where the green rods come from. ....I told him a few months back
PHUI.. I doubt you're going to sell both rods even steven plus shipping back to the mainland from HI. Then buy the green ones from RDT. .. ..imo
UNLESS your are willing to take a significant loss; Probably better you sell them there in HI. Keep the green ones a secret from those guys over there until you get the green ones in your hand. It's going to be a Hard Sell here.
Not looking to sell, only locally, trade if someone is not too fond of the "green". Long story short, my cousin was hard up for a boat, ended selling me 2 of his for a song and a dance, I got two Ballistics, he got a boat and an unhappy other half.
green rod is a keeper...get yourself a green blank ( a little less$) from rdt and have it made to your measurements, the factory ones must have been made for a very short lady as its like 27 from the butt to the reel seat
those arent old ballistic red 40's.....those are the new tournament red rods ....if i am correct i do believe that those are the same as the green rod.....so unless you just need the neon green you have a hell of a setup in those 40's, just need to move the reel seat to your specs...but those are a worthy trade for the green 40's if somebody wanted to just switch colors.
Things are a little different here, almost everyone has a preference for the older saltiga ballistics. I bought mine, then snagged the pair my cousin got, so I wouldn't mind have a pair of red and a pair of green.
