Submitted by hamo on Sat, 2010-10-23 22:16
For anyone that's interested, went into K-Mart Karratha this afternoon chasing something they didn't stock, Looked in Fishing isle's as you do, and spotted Penn International 30VS and 50VS models ( not sure if that SV part is right but def. 30's and 50's) priced down to $700 and $750. Were selling for $1k each a piece, were 2 of each left as of 5:30pm this afternoon. 30% off seems a good deal !!

Check out the Penn
Check out the Penn International website. Looks like there are a few different models. The "VW", the "VSW" and the "VSX". Not sure the difference between them but here are the prices if you don't have time to look (was a very slow to load site). All in US dollars and I'm guessing about an extra $100 to ship?
30VW - $450
50VW - $500
30VSW - $550
50VSW - $600
30VSX - $550
50VSX - $600
And then there's the 75th anniversary edition 50VSW for $1000.
So depending what models they are, it might be cheaper to get one shipped in yourself? Depends how patient you are too? If you google around, you might find them cheaper somewhere else?
I fish for the future - Cause I can't bloody catch anything!

K-Mart Karratha...
...yeah saw those reels on Friday. If you looked below them there was a TLD25 for $328, which certainly WOULDN'T be a good deal!
If you want really cheap bibbed minnows/crankbaits etc, both K-Mart and Big W have these ones called "Out back"...the 80mm Jindavai Jerkbait goes for around $4.75, have caught heaps of 30-45mm tailor on it. Ideal little trollers for the Swan/Peel estuary/etc.
