I saw these on ebay for $145 with free shipping. They are new in the box! This is the cheapest I've seen em for. Anyone know where I could find them even cheaper?

Guy must have bought them through a non-approved channel. I buy them at cost as well, and that is almost no margin. Shimano also has very strict rules on selling their equipment at MSRP - definitely with posting below MSRP...

If you can get them for that price, then go for it. Good luck finding them cheaper...

No, doesn't mean their hot - just that someone has found a back door way to get them and move them. But the second Shimano finds out they are done.

There is a reason that Shimano reels are the same price wherever you go - brand integrity. I myself have been guilty of selling them below MSRP, but not something one should go around advertising.

Like Dink said, don't worry about it and just buy em for that price. Cost isn't much lower than that, so don't waste your time trying to get em cheaper.
