I am in the market for a good second hand Zziplex and have seen they realy hold there value well after years. They are flying out the door on ebay at big prices.

zziplex 2500ptx was described by terrry carrol as the ultimate match rod mate.the 2500lm the lm stands for light match ,probably only difference the ptx will chuck a heavier lead.cheers john
