[QUOTE="4shotB, post: 807284, member: 844"] Man, I like those Penns but you must be on the water alot more than me. It's a good year if I can go on 4 or 5 saltwater trips (2-7 days each) but I fish freshwater much more frequently. I fish inshore on the Gulf Coast when I go and have never had to replace any of my Penns (I have an old Penn SS that I can't get parts for anymore that is in retirement) but I change line after every (saltwater) trip and clean/lubricate them also. I could see this being a hassle for someone who was out there everyday. I guess my feeble brain is accustomed to getting a price break on a combo. As the other posters alluded to above, they are still making a profit. What was surprising to me in the incident I described above was similar to finding a combo on the Battle combo that was cheaper than just the reel or rod by itself. I guess what they are doing (as RonJohn said) is maximizing their profits through price discrimination so that the shopper in a hurry is willing and able to pay the max price. That shopper is certainly not me! [/QUOTE]
