Does revamped = cheapened? Hard to believe you'll get the same quality for 100 less.

I guess Shimano has to lower the cost of their reels now to compete with the ones sold on EBAY....

you can order ceramic bearings from bocabearings.com . they have bearings for almost any reel. abec5 orange seal are the ones to get. changing them on a curado takes about 5 mins.
