iphone4 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I have brought online things before. It is all cheap. But the downside is that if you want to get warranty, it is a bit difficult. Also it is possible for people to con you, are you willing to gamble your money away, knowing that you can not chase after them if things go wrong?

selous Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Hi has anyone brought a cannon or scotty downrigger from the US they are pretty much half price is this to good to be true are there any loop holes any recomendations on where to get one from cheers I just ordered a Cannon Digi-Troll 10 TS which is not available here. $1197 from the states (oceanmarinetackle), the standard Digi-troll 10 is $2889 here from CH Smith so the Tournament Series would probably over 3k here. Cannon transducer there is $80, here it is $289. I got a bargain because it has gone up to $1500 a couple of days later, still half the price if you could get that model here. Reputable online stores provide tracking numbers on your parcels. Locally, if you were looking for an alternative to Cannon or Scotty have a look at the Stelcos sold by the downriggershop. Or wait a week and I'll have a couple of manual Cannons for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
