Pre-Owned Grading System(Rods)

  • At Lababass, every pre-owned rod is thoroughly inspected to ensure full transparency about its condition. 
  • Each item also undergoes thorough cleaning, disinfection, and maintenance before being listed for sale. 
  • We use a 10-point scale (10/10 = brand new; 7.5/10 = repaired and return to normal standard) .
  • Evaluate each rod across three key dimensions plus a 2kg load test: 
    • Key dimensions:
      • Grip (Handle) – Surface condition, scratches, paint wear
      • Guides (Rings) – Surface condition, scratches, paint wear
      • Blank (Rod Body) – Surface condition, scratches, paint wear
    • Overall Rating Example:
      • 10/10: Brand new, in orginal bag, unused
      • 9.9/10: Store display or open-box items, never used, Functions identical to brand new
      • 9.5/10: rarely used, in perfect condition
      • 9.0/10: rately used, in excellent condition
      • 8.5/10: in good condition, passed the load test
