I found the price point good being able to get a St. Croix/equivalent blank plus your choice of multiple color combinations.
Not liking the reduced amount of color options but I get it from their standpoint. They seem to be the same colors St. Croix offers so why offer extra colors if the demand isn't strong enough. I've had rods painted by Don Shafar at Backbone but for me and they were great. Unfortunately shipping alone would be outrageous just to ship it down to Don and back. May have to find equivalent Batson blanks for any non St Croix colors. Re: Rodgeeks issues

I'm very disappointed in RodGeeks decision to drop the color options. School colors, patriotic colors are now limited. Quality rod blanks are common, custom colors not at all. Re: Rodgeeks issues

I was hoping they would have a black Friday or cyber Monday sale and I could buy a blank or 2 but they didn't. Si I bought 7 blanks from NFC haha. @STAN you right, there's enough competition that they aren't really set apart - prices aren't special, no sales, and colors aren't really special- Re: Rodgeeks issues

I think you will see some color options come back as Rodgeeks finalizes their move and consolidates operations in Park Falls. I have been in touch with their marketing director and some of the changes appear to be only temporary.

Does anyone know if the models available in the Bass3 line up will also become available in one of the c4 lines? Re: Rodgeeks issues

Same…. I ordered 2 blanks from them on Dec 12th…still waiting for a ship confirmation. Sent an email mid last week… no response….sent another email…still nothing. I can understand being backed up through the holidays. But failing to respond and confirm that it’s just a minor holiday delay is what bugs me. I went ahead and ordered 2 more blanks from Get Bit Outdoors that’s already shipped out. I figure I’ll call and cancel my order with geeks and get my blanks from Get Bit from now on.
