Default Re: Reel Service HELP!!!

$25 to repair a spinning reel plus shipping for shimanos.

Did the reel seize up and get stuck or does it work briefly and then start grinding and sticking after some use? I've have the latter happen to 2 of mine recently. A Sedona and a Sahara. I learned that most shimano spinning reels from below the stradic and down the line need a lube job/greasing right off the bat. My reels were seemingly bone dry to where the grease turned into something comparable to an adhesive which caused the grinding/sticking I was experiencing.
