Yup, you're right.I was thinking Trevor's price was close to the new price at some sales right now.
Trevor's equipment doesn't include a swivel base, nor some of the other small hardware that comes with a new 2106 kit that I'd need to install this on my boat. His does include orca holders, extensions, clip and weight. I looked at Canadian Tire prices for the Scotty swivel mount ($120) and hardware (~$50). So for me his price becomes ~$820
@JWS was right and Parksville Boathouse has the 2106 on sale for $719, which is a super good price.
So I'll go new, because $720+sales tax is $806. I only get the regular rod master rod holder instead of the orcas, plus I'll need weight and a clip, say another $80-$100 but it's basically the same prices as Trevor's, yet it is brand new gear.
Trevor doesn't want to drop his price, which is his perogative. I asked Duncan Gone Fish'n to price match Parksville's $719 but they said no.. the sales rep claims they are selling the 2106 for $900 in Victoria. So get'm from Parksville while you can! (they have 100)
Thanks everyone, my education in downriggers continues..
