I've got both. If resale matters to you the black hurts because every little nick and scratch shows. Great reels though.
BTW: it looks like shipping is $14.99 but no tax assessed to CA buyers
All my other reels are black so I decided on silver. Best with my OCD. Making 20 pound bread, 250 to 300 yards. Thoughts? What do you have on yours?

I've got a VS150 that I switch between a 9 and 10' rod that's spooled with 30 lb PowerPro SS v2. I've got a VS250 that's got 40 lb of the same, and a VR50 (whose body is the same as the VR75 but with a different spool) that is spooled with 20lb JBraid.
Truth be told, I'm not worried about the breaking point of the braid and could probably have used 20 across the board, but I fish around a lot of rocks and wanted the abrasion resistance.
Good luck with it, tight lines!

I think its more about the beating these can take compared to other reels - a lot of guys with these use them hard and swear by them. Especially surf fishermen who go out a lot. This is just anecdotal since I dont have firsthand experience. Personally, i dont go often enough to justify something like this. My most expensive reels to date are probably the Stradic FLs i got via slickdeals for $150ish, and I've maybe used one of them once if that? Hahaha. I know the FLs are pretty solid reels but I think the Van Staals are supposed hold up to harsher treatment and conditions. All this to say that, regardless of the reel, you really ought to be doing regular maintenance on them.
As far as catching bigger/better fish, i feel like the 'crappier' setups always end up catching the fish for some reason LOL

Hahaha yea, somehow it always works out that way 😂

It's always wild to see someone that knows so little about a product make such an uninformed take on it.
This is one of the very few truly sealed reels. It is predominantly used for surf fishing where people wade out into the ocean and anticipate being hit by waves, and occasionally tripping and dunking the reel.
People pay the premium specifically because these reels can be dunked where as most other reels that get dunked are recommended to he disassembled, cleaned, and regreased as soon as possible. Sure, you can just stop fishing and spend time disassembling a reel every time the reel gets dunked, or if you valued your time at all, you could figure out that for a few hundred dollars, you wouldn't have to waste your time and stop fishing every time the reel gets dunked.
For a guy surf fishing once every two years, of course it probably doesn't make sense. For the guys in New Jersey hitting the beach every weekend, calling buying this reel snobbery is more an indictment of your ignorance on the topic than their frivolous spending.
