ausea 4 Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 This guy selling them was contacted and did explain he has got genuine rex hunt reels.These were the reels supplied to rex for his show and all were numbered with his name on them.apparently he has hundreds of them and all minimal use.not that I would be interested or trying to promote sales but it’s the real deal.

pescados 1 Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 It might be the reel deal but doubt that the REAL Rex Hunt would allow this guy to use his name as his users name.I certainly would not, leaves it open for stolen identities etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RogerG 1 Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 After the REX HUNT TUNA OIL fiasco, I would think long and hard before I bought anything with that name on it. Rex Hunt Tuna Oil contained only 10% tuna oil and was cut with 90% vegetable oil. It was also selling for almost twice the price of pure tuna oil just because it was endorsed by Rex Hunt.RogerG Quote Link to post Share on other sites
