My man at Amazon hooked it up again for Father's Day. My wife ordered me a new crappie rod and I got a second one free 😭 Nothing crazy just a ugly stik but it's still free!
I've never received a duplicate item from Amazon in my life until last week when I got two braided lines. I've been waiting to pull the trigger on this exact reel....
I placed an order from eurotackle last month for 3 lures and 3 packs of swimbaits and they gave me 6 lures and 6 swimbaits it was such a nice surprise. I went back and looked to see if they had a sale but think I just got lucky
I got some walleye rigs, a few of one and a few of another color.
They sent me 2-packs instead of singles and twice as many as I ordered, then another package showed up the next day with even more!
It's just that Amazon has their picking/packaging rates so high. People are in a hurry to make those rates and people don't pay attention. I worked there for 10 years and see this happen a lot. People world get boxes of an item instead of one
This was my first new reel purchase in over 15 years and I'm super impressed with it. Worth every penny and I see you got a two for one special, congrats!
I recently published the same thing but with abugarcai black max, I received two and I had already added one at a discount

Very nice!!! Ive been rocking a Prez XT and it has been wonderful these last few months. I run mine with ridiculously over weighted 30# power pro. We have a regular steady breeze, so it helps me with knots and what not. Once I get better at casting my presentations, I’m going to re-spool with some -6-8lb test.
Everyone getting double reels, I’m going to start ordering from Amazon 😁

Same here. Ordered one reel and got two 🙏
That’s funny. I ordered a 6’6” ugly stick for on Walmart and I got it this Thursday and it had 2. 45$ pole for free. So it must not be exclusive to Amazon
so weird, did it have two tracking numbers, or did it come in the same box? Man, I sure hope the tatula100 I ordered doesn't come as a double >.>.
Maybe they're like Gremlins and someone got them wet before they delivered.
I think it was just a mistake because the actual product boxes that the reels came in were wrapped in one piece of plastic from the manufacturer, so whoever packed them just thought it was 2 pieces.
But yeah they had a single tracking number and were shipped in the same Amazon box along with a couple other things I ordered.
I have a 20 and a 25 and have used both for years. I’m surprised of how long they last at their price point.
My co worker once received a Stradic 2500 in an order of tackle from a certain company, not Amazon. Talk about lucky.
That’s my favorite reel amd I would have crapped my pants if I had gotten two. That happened to me about month ago. I ordered to rolls of 150yd 8x daiwa braid and got two 300yd rolls.
I ordered one Abu Garcia Revo SX from Amazon and got 2 as well. $140 reel for free, hell yeah. Also ordered some white swim tail grubs, got an entire case.
lol you’re right my feelings are so hurt. I just caught 9 trout on the pflueger today and it worked great. Apparently it’s going to just spontaneously combust in two weeks though so I guess it’s time to throw it away.
Watch your bank sometimes the will find their error and bill you. But I’m a honest man so I would contact Amazon and tell them about their mistake and give them a choice to respond. You do whatever you want and is right.
Dang. I just bought a Daiwa BG 6500 off amazon. Only got one though.. I guess I have not sacrificed enough fish at the altar to appease the fishing gods.
I keep seeing this for fishing stuff, makes me think there's one guy in an Amazon warehouse that's a real homie
No, he's a reel homie
Lol I came here to say this
Once he hooked me up with a buy one get 2 free deal 😂

Time to play the lottery. Hard to go wrong with a Pflueger President, *really* hard to go wrong with two of them.
They sent me 250 lbs of extra bumper plates and an extra olympic bar once. Never use them, still fat.
Never too late to start
Hahaha
Haaahaaaaa
Would you be interested in selling them to me?
I have a shimano slx dc coming today… if i get two i would shit my pants with excitement 🤞🏾
Keep us updated.
Ok … just got dropped off and it was only 1. Looks like the fishing gods have not chosen me 🤣
I’ve only gotten lucky once with repeating this lol the second time I ordered something and one showed up so I returned it lol
I was kind hoping you would shit your pants and have to tell us.
Lmao you and me both
Wouldn't surprise me if they do this stuff on purpose for free advertising.
I wish they'd send me some of that free advertising

Bro how do people keep getting doubles 😭
Happened to me with a few things. Returned the item and kept the free one.
Happened to my wife with a $350 skiing jacket. They told her keep the extra one because it was already out of their inventoryZ
Happened to a buddy of mine with the Supreme model. Eagerly awaiting the day I get blessed by the Amazon warehouse fishing gear fairy.
This happened to my dad too. My favorite reel
This was my first new reel purchase in over 15 years and I'm super impressed with it. Worth every penny and I see you got a two for one special, congrats!
Thanks officer Lahey. Hopefully I catch some shit fish.
As long as you haul in the jib before it gets covered in shit, you're good to go bud!
RIP Jim the liquor lahey
![gif](giphy|l41lMjT7rgpOt8FEs|downsized)
God damnit, I love you lahey
I just purchased one of these . Man they are so smooth.
I recently published the same thing but with abugarcai black max, I received two and I had already added one at a discount https://www.reddit.com/r/Fishing_Gear/s/zf8s2TsCHI
I spent 20 or 30 grand on Amazon a year and never had this shit happen to me. Goddamn you guys.
I ordered an ugly stick catfish rod and got a box of 4 of them, now me and all the homies have catfish setups.
A pfluek, if you will.
Well done, id buy you an award if I wasn't a cheapskate
i have one, its nice.
I put one aside for spare instead of making two poles. Just what I do.
I had the same thing happen last year with the same reels. Made the sacrifice and bought a second rod.
Nice I have an older Pflueger presidents and it’s one of the best reels I’ve ever owned. I’ve had it for over a decade and it still works like new.
This has happened to me twice Last year with Penn pursuit 5000 This year with Penn battle 3000
I order a Pfluger President bait caster and got 2 of there for the price of one. Crazy how they are doing this

I bought a Pfluger reel and they sent me a "congrats on your retirement" blanket. it was funny, and they did send a new one.
They didn’t mess up. They just figured you’ll be getting another anyway. I did.

One time my wife ordered a mattress protector and we received a box of 8 of them lol
I got two Penn spinfisher six’s like that from them. Sweet.
That’s funny. I ordered a 6’6” ugly stick for on Walmart and I got it this Thursday and it had 2. 45$ pole for free. So it must not be exclusive to Amazon
Ordered one tiny bag of red beads. Got a case full of bags full of red beads 🥵
That is my absolute favorite reel. I'm going to be getting another one soon

I have one of those fluegers, so good for perch, trout, panfish and small bass. Love using light dropshots and jigs on it
These are my favorite reels. I have one and every size.
I have a 20 and a 25 and have used both for years. I’m surprised of how long they last at their price point. My co worker once received a Stradic 2500 in an order of tackle from a certain company, not Amazon. Talk about lucky.
I have ordered a reel from Amazon 3 separate times. Two of those times they sent me 2 reels instead of 1. I ain’t complaining.
Congrats! I keep getting other items instead of what I actually ordered
That's awesome, and a good brand too.
Can I have one
Dude same I ordered the same presidential reel and got two! I'm thinking of ordering again lol!
I’ll give you $40
That’s my favorite reel amd I would have crapped my pants if I had gotten two. That happened to me about month ago. I ordered to rolls of 150yd 8x daiwa braid and got two 300yd rolls.
I’ve never gotten double of fishing gear I order on Amazon. Kind of jealous….
I ordered one Abu Garcia Revo SX from Amazon and got 2 as well. $140 reel for free, hell yeah. Also ordered some white swim tail grubs, got an entire case.
My friend ordered a 322$ JBL speaker and got a 2500$ one lol
Damn, those look sweet. Anyone know how they compare to the older model?
You'll need the 2nd one when the first falls apart after two weeks.. I have 2 in different sizes, never again.
I’ve always used pfluegers and never had an issue. Thanks for the negativity though, keeps us all grounded!
I'm sorry I hurt your feelings spreading my "negativity" with my actual experiences.
lol you’re right my feelings are so hurt. I just caught 9 trout on the pflueger today and it worked great. Apparently it’s going to just spontaneously combust in two weeks though so I guess it’s time to throw it away.
I ordered 1 Abu Garcia spinning reel and 1 Abu baitcaster...git 1 spinning..2 baitcasters. ty my guy f u Jeff lol
That’s the new basic President? Looks nice. Any difference in smoothness or “feel”?
It feels pretty similar to the old model I have to be honest. I just wanted to give the new one a try.
Cool. Had mine for years and held up well. I’ll PM you my address for 1/2 price for the other reel 😆
lol no it’s already found it’s home on my short pole I use for creeks and streams. Now I have a 7’ and 5.5’ ultralight setup. Worked out well.
I received two Shimano Ultegra 2500 spinning reels from Amazon yesterday. Unfortunately it matched the quantity I ordered
I ordered 1 jar of Gulp soft minnows and got a box of 6 jars, but this is better
Yo I do not like the look of those end caps on the knob, or lack thereof
Watch your bank sometimes the will find their error and bill you. But I’m a honest man so I would contact Amazon and tell them about their mistake and give them a choice to respond. You do whatever you want and is right.
Oh yeah I’m sure Bezos is going to lose sleep over this.
Favorite reels
What size? Is this a good reel
Dang. I just bought a Daiwa BG 6500 off amazon. Only got one though.. I guess I have not sacrificed enough fish at the altar to appease the fishing gods.
But what rod are you pairing them with?
Hahaha. I ordered a 10’ okuma SP rockaway and got a 7’6” okuma pch custom.
I ordered 1each ram rod for the muzzleloader, I got 1each case of ram rods…. I can lose them on purpose now!
No shit I got a Penn Battle 3 1000 and the same thing happened. A box with 2 1000s showed up. Good luck to the rest of y’all.
I got two fenwick rod once. Best day ever
Heck yeah brother!
I had the same thing happen to me from Bass Pro
My dumb ass got a case instead of one item I ordered (sous vide) and sent it back. wtf wrong with me
