I just got my rod back from Lamiglass, I needed to have the first guide replaced and several other guides needed more epoxy added at the connections from normal use and abuse. Total cost $10.00, cheap at twice the price, total time lost 5 days. And like Flickyourjig said you get a nice storage unit back(common 2" PVC tubing). I would recommend using this to ship in as it is hard to find the proper length cardboard container to ship in. Just cut a bit over length and stuff the ends with some foam, seal with duct tape, be sure to enclose prepaid postage in the form of a money order and ship UPS. Insure for replacement cost of a new unit.

I have friends who have done this several times and never have we been rejected. You wouldn't believe how some of the rods are broken. Lamiglas gets all my business. laugh
