This one's for Dave Welfare (EPIX 1500)

[pie smuggler]

Just got back from the States with one of your favourites an Okuma Epix 1500, actually it's called an Epixor over there. I picked it up in a supermarket in Seattle for the unbelievable price of $US36.10,It was on Special to start with at $US39, but it was Tuesday and if you're over 55 you get 10% off all puchases, so out came the WA driver's licence and BANG another $US3.90 off the price, they also had Stradics at $US86 after all discounts, but I could buy ANOTHER!!!!!! reel as my other half was hovering around.

Cheers mate - luckily I have one, but mine is badged an Epix 15, accidentally brought into the country

I'm pretty much using the Inspira's exclusively now - very hard to beat interms of value for money
