I only collect Ambassadeur reels and would like to trade a Penn Senator 114 in box (Man surf fishing label) and a 113 in box (Man fishing from back of boat label)for ambassadeur of equal value? These reels look to have never been fished and the boxes are EX++. You Penn Collector's please send an email with advise as to help me establish a trade value. I know nothing about Penn reels.
I listed these reels on Joe's earlier but will give this forum first shot at trade.

Hi Lonnie,
I remember seeing your posts on Joe's but don't know if you got a response from Gabby - he would be able to narrow down the value range. It sounds like your reels are in green boxes, based on the label description. If so, they might run in the $65-100 range, maybe a little more if you find the right Penn reel collector.
Just a tip: if you end up with a trade and mail off the reels, don't put the reels in the boxes and send them. The cardboard used for the boxes are not strong enough at all to withstand the care and handling of the USPS. Even with lots of padding, etc. I've had these heavy 4/0 and 6/0 reels punch through and pulverize box tops and bottoms. I would suggest boxing them or separating them in your package.
Also, just another note for your future reference, please put all your buy, sell and trade posts under the "For Sale" section.
