Orvis 51-A, DAM Microlite, Abu Cardinal 3 w/ others & Pics

[Len Sawisch]

Trying to downsize my collection of down-sized spinning reels.

The Orvis 51-A has line but looks new, in the correct box with paperwork.

The Quick Microlite (no number) looks like it may have been used once or twice.

The Cardinal 3 (SN 310401) looks like a third version? It has been fished and has a small chip on the foot.

As enthusiastic as you all were from my last Spinning Reel post, I ain't putting up pictures unless there are requests - so there!

OK, OK, OK, alright, already! Please, Mr. Len, would you post some pictures and prices? Huh, wouldja, please? Please, please, please?
Jeez, the hoops we gotta jump through just to get a few pics!

Darn just bought a 51 & 3 today and have an option on a microlite! Probably would have bought your's if there were some pics posted! Len, you can't let 'em intimidate you like that. Spinning is where it's at, man!

Just kidding about the reels but I truly couldn't resist a jab on this one!

Dear Mr. Len, Sir:

As a favor to a new member of this fine board, could you please post pictures and prices?

Thanks so much for your kind indulgence.

OK Already! Took a while to get my web site back up (funny, it went down real easy . . .)

So I got this Cardinal 3 that seems to work well, third version, made in Sweden, SN 310 401. It is used and has a chip on the foot (Damn dog!) - still very fish-able - $85



Then this Quick Microlite, with brochure and hang tag, for $90



And a Daiwa Silver Series SS 500C IS SOLD


Plus this cool little Shimano Spirex 500 (with spare spool) for $35


Happy to consider offers and will trade for ridiculous upgrades to my Marhoff collection . . .
