LB, a general rule of thumb for what cane rods are worth is:

Rods that were built in japan are worth very little. Rods that were made in the USA are the ones that can bring big money if they are in good condition. Quality rods that are under 8' in length demand the most $$$$$. Too many variables too list on here. I have been collecting for 20 years and have a pretty good idea what most things are worth. I might add that some rods in Europe can be very desirable too.

If you would like send me some info and I can steer you in to the right direction.
