** Marking international shipments as "gift," "sample," and/or entering a

We ship via FedEx only and do not ship via UPS, USPS, or any other carrier. |

| Upgrade Program Condition Grading System
The
Leland Upgrade Program has the best and most accurate photos and
condition assessments on eBay, so you can be confident that what you
receive is exactly what you bid on. After all, we don’t want to sell you
something that doesn’t meet your expectations. That being said, most
times buyer expectations are exceeded.
Our
staff members in the Leland Upgrade Program are trained professionals
and we put our customers first. However, it’s impossible for us to tell
the complete history of the items we receive, and sometimes it’s
difficult for the original owner to know. We go to great lengths to
avoid defects and refurbish each item to ensure the best quality
products on eBay. If an item does not meet our strict standards of
fishability we will reject it from our program, so you don’t end up with
any junk.
Fly Rod Grading Scale
Condition
| Grade
| Description
| New
| NEW
| Never fished and no previous owner. Sometimes we have old or overstock inventory that we need to sell.
| Like New
| 6
| Has
the same qualities of a brand-new rod, but has been previously owned so
the original owner warranty is no longer intact. You may see minor
“shop wear,” but never any signs of fishing use. This grade is hardly
distinguishable from NEW.
| Excellent
| 5
| At
first glance you would mistake this rod for being NEW, but looking
closely under bright light, you may see some minor cosmetic blemishes
(e.g., very faint scuffing and/or scratches). Overall, the rod has new
properties.
| Very Good
| 4
| The
rod has been used but well taken care of after every fishing trip. It
shows signs of NORMAL assembly wear on the male ferrules and/or LIGHT
surface scratches on various parts of the blank. The reel seat hardware
shows oxidation or SMALL dings from reel attachment. Overall you will be
pleased with the rod’s condition, but it still looks moderately used.
| Good
| 3
| The
rod has been used but well taken care of after every fishing trip. It
shows signs of NORMAL assembly wear on the male ferrules and/or LIGHT
surface scratches on various parts of the blank. The reel seat hardware
shows oxidation or SMALL dings from reel attachment. Overall you will be
pleased with the rod’s condition, but it still looks moderately used.
| Fishable
| 2
| Shows
substantial wear and heavy use. This rod isn’t fooling anybody in a
beauty contest, but she can still cast and land any big fish. There will
be obvious scratches and wear throughout, but you can count on this rod
to get the job done.
| Poor (JUNK)
| 1
| The
rod shows years of heavy fishing abuse (maybe more than fishing). It
has deep scratches that go into the graphite and the rod’s structural
integrity may be compromised. Broken guides are usually common. WE JUST
DON’T ACCEPT THESE ITEMS INTO THE PROGRAM, PERIOD!

| 4
| The
reel/ spool has been used but has been cared for very well. Its edges
show minor signs of wear in the finish, but nothing to worry about
functionally. Overall you will be pleased with the reel/spool condition,
but it still looks moderately used.
| Good
| 3
| Overall,
the reel/spool shows OBVIOUS signs of moderate to heavy use. On a
specific spot, there is a concentration of blemishes and scratches that
have removed the reel/spool’s finish, but the majority of the reel is
cosmetically sound.
| Fishable
| 2
| The
reel/ spool shows substantial wear and heavy use. It has many cosmetic
imperfections that have removed a significant portion of its finish.
Looks aside, this is still a “fishing reel” that you can throw around a
little.
| Poor (JUNK)
| 1
| The
reel shows years of neglect and has been dropped more than a few times.
The spool is warped from hitting a rock so it grinds against the frame
slightly. The drag adjustment is sticky and jolty. WE JUST DON’T ACCEPT
THESE ITEMS INTO THE PROGRAM, PERIOD!
