Purchased a few years ago and used 2-3 times as a spare reel for light jigging. Overall, there are few scratches and it seems to be in good condition. Regarding the reeling feel, there's a gear-like feel that has been there since purchase, but I don't feel any roughness. The line is probably DUEL Super X-WIRE 8, size 1.5, but I'm not sure. Box and instruction manual are included. If you have any questions, please comment and I will post pictures, etc.
