Not sure its from a Shop On Ebay its brand new. Its not in the Preston Catalogue so might be last years. The extras and the weight have swung it for me.

I have been searching and it has an RRP of £1080 and is on few web shops at £799. Saw a shimano Exage on there to with top kits and elastics but it did not seem right as there were 2 exactly the same that one chap had bought from another the week before. At least this pole has come from a proper shop and its brand new. Cant wait to have a blast with it. I have a Middy Works at the moment and its so heavy at full length that I never use it at this length

It's a couple of seasons old, but as I recall it was pretty highly rated at the time, so you've got a good deal.
