They didn't send RRP but I did a search and got this ... scroll down at http://www.getprice.com.au/buy-best-okuma-nova-reel.htm

Looks like they are affordable reels. The lifetime warranty is interesting given the low cost of the reels.

Thanks for that Matt, yes for the money a lifetime warranty does make it rather apealing.. I'm thinking of something like this on a Lightish 7ft spin rod for chucking really light soft plastics around thought I'd try a bit of finnese fishing!

Might want to PM Justin, and ask him if a drag upgrade on them is worthwhile, and if so, how much. I don't know what the drags are like out of the box on these reels - if you are fishing really light a good drag helps.
