    The reel is a regular arbor. It's finished gray/black. It was made about 7-8 years ago when
    they were still made in England. The reels made there were of a much better quality
    compared to many of their models now made in Asia.

    Here is a picture of one that somebody sold on eBay:

    I see you said it is unused, but does it have any nicks or scratches on it? Also does it have a disc drag or spring and pawl.

    I'll take $75. Remember it has flyline and backing. Also, the reel was made in England.
    There is a difference between those Orvis reels made in Englang versus those made elsewhere; I think in China.

    It is tentatively sold. The person just has to pick it up and pay.

    If the deal falls through, I'll post it here.
