Well why stop at the Normal Exist then when you can Get the 50th anniversary edition @ a cool $1200.
They dont come up for sale that often..
Since you have money to burn i reckon this has to be the reel for sure.. bugger the stella

Thats a lot of money for flathead, but at the end of the day the cost is all relative to how much money you have, life is like a **** sandwich the more bread you have the less **** you eat.
