50 good shafts pre-straightened and sized and sorted all ready to go- seems fair to me. There's a lot of work involved. I'd not want to get paid at that guy's rate.

Not sure if its a good deal or not, doesn't say what they spine. There's a place in Floride by mullets that sells 500
count bundles for about $60, not straightened or anything but for that price its a good deal. I will PM you the link.

i have looked at this fellows auctions and have been tempted to purchase some to see how well they are made. the shafts will most likely spine in the 70-90# range, but that shouldn't be a problem with bows over 55#. i often shoot 90# shafts out of my 55-65# bows with no problem. anytime you can get a straightened bamboo shaft for less than $2, it's a good deal. let us know how they shoot.

They are also selling them in lots of 25...

Cromm,
I got some of those shafts. My main shipment is Chinese Arrow bammbo but I got some samples of the Tonkin. They are nice but very very stiff. If you are interested I could do you some spine matched Arrow Bamboo shafts.
I tried to send you a message but I am not sure it arrived.
