I think the slx DC combo deals are usually in the 229 range ? Rods are usually 99 reel 189 . You'll see combos as high as 289. Love my slx DC combo. seems like a great price sub 200 shipped. the regular slx reel is 99. getting DC for free basically.

can't seem to replicate the 187 price though as the DC combo is listed at 219. bringing it to to 204. for those interested as far as the site is showing me, only the 6.3:1 ratio reels are available, all the 7-8 speed are OOS

Fantastic deal. Already owned the DC reel and a SLX spinning rod. Just picked up an XT reel and a heavy rod. Thanks!

Whatever version you get, pretty much a free rod (nice rod by itself). Looks like they only have 6:3 to 1 ratios left for the DC now. This is the lowest price I've seen.

Promo code should bring it down to $186.99, 15% off. Still seems to be working for me.

TU for fishing deal. Good get on Shimano, even though it says memorial15 doesn't apply to Shimano

This is a horrible deal you are saving 2 dollars on the slx dc and have no idea about warranty.

Huh? You realize you're getting a rod normally priced at $100 with this reel, right? Don't need the rod? Sell it new and you'll recoup most of the cost of the rod's value new. And what do you mean "no idea about the warranty?" Is the warranty on this reel any different than other Shimano reels? Or are you saying that Shimano's warranty is no good in general?
Most reel warranties aren't going to exceed 1-2 years, and if you buy with a CC that offers extended warranty you'll get a little on more.
Beyond that, it's pretty normal to have to pay to have your reel cleaned and serviced unless you do it yourself (which isn't hard if you just take some time, patience, and learn how to do it). Furthermore, Shimano is probably one of the better companies that has good availabiltiy for replacement parts too.

I can get anything. Horrible deal and signed up for 10 percent off and cannot even get that! Please remove this post.
