Orvis Battenkill Disc 5/6 Fly Reel w/Spare Spool, Conv - FlyMasters TradeUp
CONDITION
USED - I would further classify this reel as being in VERY GOOD condition. There are some scratches and dings in the black finish, especially on the edges of the reel. The reel foot shows a few marks from mounting the reel on a rod. Mechanically this reel is in excellent condition. The artificial leather and nylon zippered reel cover is lined with fleece. The cover is also in very good condition except that a previous owner has marked on the exterior with a marker to identify the line on the reel.

We strive to ship all of our orders by the next business day after receipt of payment. We are successful in doing so in almost every case. We primarily use U.S. Mail - Priority Mail Service because when we consider all factors in shipping, they are our best option - free boxes, low-cost service, & fast delivery to all parts of the U.S. from our central location. We use Priority Mail over Parcel Select because of the faster delivery and less time for your purchase to be exposed to the hazards inherently involved in shipping by any method.
Again we strive to ship all of our international orders by the next business day. We also primarily use U.S. Mail - Priority International Service for the same reason that we use them in domestic shipping. We are also pleased to participate in eBay's new Global Shipping Program whenever possible and hope that it expands to cover more countries of the world soon. We believe that it brings the buyer lower postage costs, faster deliveries, and fewer surprises on import charges. We are pleased to be able to ship to more places in this world than many others. Our restricted country list is extremely short.
When shipping international orders by other than the Global Shipping Program, international orders are not subject to U.S. taxes. However, it is likely that import duties will be applied by the country to which a package is shipped. The buyer is responsible for payment of applicable duties, taxes & other fees. Please contact your local customs officials to be sure that you understand the duties, taxes & fees that may be applied to your order. Marking international shipments as a "gift", a "sample", and/or showing a lower purchase price than the price that you paid is illegal under U.S. law and the laws of the country to which a shipment is made. We can not jeopardize our export license and risk fines and/or jail sentences. We will not engage in this practice. Thank you in advance for your understanding.
All requests for postage/shipping refunds are subject to the "yippyiyo" rule - All requests for postage/shipping refunds due to late deliveries are subject to a US$50 non-refundable processing fee. Payment must be received prior to application for any refund. We will use "best efforts" to get a refund. No postage/shipping refunds are guaranteed. This processing fee is not refunded for any reason. The processing fee is waived for lost/damaged shipments.
