Guest Posted January 11, 2002 Share Posted January 11, 2002 I have been looking at buying a new FL-8. The cost of the 18 is just to prohibitive at this time for me. I have been seeing cost on the FL-8 at (289.00$)is this right? Or does someone know of a place that has them cheaper? Any ideas would be appreciated.

Guest Posted January 11, 2002 Share Posted January 11, 2002 Scheels on 13th Ave. in Fargo ND had very solid trade in FL-8's for $220.Tell them I referred you and you may get in on a deal. ------------------"Ed on the Red"Backwater Guiding Service[email protected]fishingminnesota.com/ed-on-the-red/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mankato-Ice-Man Posted January 12, 2002 Share Posted January 12, 2002 Check Vexilars HSOforum. They had reconditioned ones for 199.99!!!! They still come with a full one year warrenty and at that price you could sell it next year for close to that price and get an 18! I am tempted to do that myself.

Havin' Fun Posted January 14, 2002 Share Posted January 14, 2002 Crappie hunter,I was pondering many the same thoughts. I decided to skip it all together and go with the fl18. Sure it's $80 more, but you do get a 2 year warranty and more gadgets to play with!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
