Newport always is tough this time of year, but yesterday for me was the worse I've had in years.

I've a bait-caster in their possession for about 5 weeks. I knew it needed parts but .. .

They may be close and relatively inexpensive, but they are slow!

I'm calling on Thurs.

I have had a couple in for repair before, and usually if it is too bad, and it takes this long, you will probably end up with a replacement reel...that's usually the delay

i took in my TLD star 20/40 and two corvalus a couple weeks back...payed 80 for the service on the 3(30, 25x2) and 2 weeks later got a call saying the TLD was ready for pickup...show up and they tell me that they were just going to order 2 new corvalus and they'd ship them to my house when they arrived at Shimano Irvine. So for 80 i got the service plus two brand new corvalus....great customer service if i do say so myself.
