d beyer Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I am thinking of buying a new marcum lx-7 before this ice season. I am headed to the st paul ice fishing,sports show later this year. I see a sponsor on this site has a pretty good deal at $629.I was wondering if I should wait to see what kind of a deal I may be able to get at the show since I have never been to it before or do you think $629 is the best deal I will see. Also which vendor do you think would have best deal on one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad B Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 don't jump the gun to soon. with the LX9 coming out you might find a used LX7 out there for less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fisherman-andy Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 don't jump the gun to soon. with the LX9 coming out you might find a used LX7 out there for less. I doubt you will see the LX7 for less. With the possible option that an LX7 can become and LX9 as an upgrade from Marcum. At start of season $629 price point is killer deal.If your looking for the absolute lowest price then wait till the end of season bargain or clearance. LX7 can be found used for around $500 or new for under $600 once the hard season is over.Or if your thinking like me, take a look at the LX6.

basssmasher* Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 at this point I'd settle for a good used LX 5 lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad B Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Yea it would be nice if Marcum offered some type of upgrade that would allow you to change a LX7 into a LX9. I know I would do it if the price was right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d beyer Posted August 31, 2012 Author Share Posted August 31, 2012 I already have a lx-5. I talked to the guys at marcum about a problem I had with it a few weeks ago. They said there will be an upgrade for the 7 to make it a nine. I don't want a used 7. I just was checking to see what your guys thoughts were as to if I could get a good deal at the sports show? Like I said I have never been there and thought maybe I could get a better deal there. I am kinda interested to see what the lx-6 is like as far as size, etc next to the lx-7. I thought the lx-5 would get used to hole hop and the lx-7 would be used in the shack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
