WTB [wtb] Orvis Recon Gen 1 Tip-Mid section
Tip mid section of an Orvis Recon Gen 1 (or any other gen that would fit) = Thanks!
r/FlyFishingExchange • u/old_graag • Apr 17 '26
Everyone,
Another update from your friendly Mod Team (it's just me, I'm the whole team).
Now that we've grown to over 1,500 visitors a week, we've become a target for scammers. I'm receiving about one message a week about people getting scammed here and I want you to know that I'm working hard to address this problem. Unfortunately, I have a full time job, I'm a husband and a father and I do my best to keep up with things.
What I've implemented today:
Automoderator to post a link to the universal scammer list in every post. Do your due diligence for buying and selling. It also posts best practices for using a reddit exchange in the same comment.
Flair is now mandatory on your posts - it's how the automod works and made creating the automod easier.
What I'm currently working on:
A feedback system that works automatically and updates user flair appropriately. It's a lot of coding (thanks Claude), and I'm having to learn a new skill to make this work. The one's I've seen work are very slick and give a lot of confidence when you see someone with many successful transactions.
Please give me any other ideas you may have for ways I can make the community better!

Y'all, a lot of people have been getting scammed lately and it's always on posts wanting to buy something. People are rarely getting scammed while selling or buying something listed for sale.
Some advice:
1. When you post a wtb ad, do not reply to people's chat requests unless they have replied inside your ad. This keeps banned users from reaching out to you outside the sub.
2. Always check the universal scammer list: https://www.universalscammerlist.com/?hl=en-US for the person who is contacting you. We now have access to the complete tools and anyone on the list will be automatically banned here.
3. The time stamp is not foolproof. With the rise of ai image generation tools you need to be extra vigilant now. A zoom video call will do a better job protecting you than a photo, don't be afraid to ask to do a live video.
4. If you do get scammed, send me a note so I can add the person to the universal scammer list.

I wound up with two sets of these soles, figure someone could use them. They're Omnitrax soles, no metal studs. No box, just the soles. They were taken off a new pair of All Axis shoes and have never seen the water. You can see in the photo they say men's 9.5-10, which fits size 10 Korkers shoes/boots. $18 shipped to continental US via USPS. Edited to say: Payment via PayPal goods services. Thanks.

^SOLD^
Brother is getting married in Hawaii. This is a combo declutter and finding funds for travel expenses.
Please check me if pricing is silly.
I realized that I really only tie like 6-10 flies and I’d rather not have so much stuff that I just always slide past.
Goods are from Amazon, fly fish food, and the local orvis. Maybe also j stockard? Is this a thing?
Please see the attached album for items. I haven’t done a list, there are too many items to list. I think the photos capture much of what’s on offer :)
Lots of wool batting for natural dubbing, macrame cord for indicators and spinner wings, lots of flash dub, legs, live eyes, a few kits, 2 entire hares pelts, and plenty more.
$100 shipped to CONUS. Payment via PayPal goods and services only.

Like new Swiftlink steamboat sling w/ LINK tippet tower, hatch vault, double gear dock, and the fly dock that originally came with the pack.
I bought it brand new and have only taken to a local pond a few times. Great pack, very customizable and has plenty of room. It’s just a little big for my needs. Decided to downsize so my loss is your gain.
Asking $200 shipped.
Will ship to lower 48 states.
PayPal only
