Wright & McGill Trailmaster 7 1/2 No. 4TM

Question
Hello Robert -
In question is a Wright & McGill "Trailmaster" fishing rod that is labeled 7 1/2' long with "No. 4TM" on the rod. It looks to have aluminum and a pretty wood construction in 4 pieces...no reel but came with the aluminum case. We're looking to sell this on eBay - can you suggest a price range? Thanks in advance.

Answer
I would estimate $40 if the rod is in excellent condition. If the rod is not near mint condition, would drop off from that price.

On ebay you can see significant swings in price depending on bidders...but usually if you start with a low price then bidders get interested and compete more.

Right now with the economy prices are down significantly for collectable fishing tackle.

regards

Bob
