I purchased this last year, but I've only used it twice and then stored it in its box. There are no scratches, and the reeling feels good. I sold the spool and handle around that time, so this is just the main body. I used it for bass fishing, but I never caught a fish with it. 23 TATULA FC LT2500SS-QD Brand: DAIWA (Fishing) Reel Size: 2500.0 size Reel Weight: 170.0 g Reel Gear Ratio: 5.1 (Gear Ratio) Maximum Drag Force: 5.0 kg Number of Ball Bearings: 7.0 Maximum Winding Length: 72.0 cm
