I paid USD 200 -NZD 259 (plus freight) It is for sale ,used once (as described above) for NZD 180.00. Maybe it is just me  and not the reel, but if I don't have confidence in it I won't use it. I have an Avet T Rex that is great  and would recommend to anyone so I am not just anti-Avet. PM me if you want the SX

Im surprised at the ( bottom end rubbish) remark,

I have a sx, and it gets used from s-b fishing, to bottom fishing, to catching puka and kings,
its loaded with jigstar 15kg braid and never has it dropped between the spool and the the frame.
one thing your right about, its stink for casting.

I bought bought BH's LH Avet and added some rare earth magnets (see pics in another thread) for great cast control. Dis-assembled the reel and used a liberal amount of Cals grease to the bottom of the drag (spool base) and haven't seen any corrosion issues. I use it for light trolling but the LH wind has confused all my mates so much I've relegated it to bottom fishing.
Don't need a 2 speed for <15kg tackle.
PS - Mine is an AX

I bought an Avet SX online from Charkbait in the USA last month. I tried it out on the weekend and have some good and some bad opinions of it.
The Good: It has a "dog" system rather than anti-reverse bearings. I have had ARBs give way on some very expensive reels and am quite wary of them now. The result is more slop in the handle with a Dog but that is not a major concern to me
The Bad: I spooled the reel up with 6kg momoi mono (0354mm). and tried out the advertised "cast control". To be fair I never expected it to work and was not surprised when it did not so my thumb was ready to control the overspin. Unfortunately- not quite ready enough and to my great disappointment the mono got jammed between the spool and the frame. This happed even when I began casting using my normal thumbing technique and also when livebaiting and a kingfish picked up a bait I had out and ran with it then changed direction.Jam--- PING!!!
The hype says fine tolerances for manufacture - The reality, at least for the reel I received, is Bottom End rubbish.
Back to using Accurates or my Favourite Duel Speedy 12  for me- More expensive but if I lose a fish it will be my own fault not my reel's.
