How long does it take to get my reel repaired and back?

Overall Service times vary by season, shipping service selected, distance, and response back to the service center. Our AWSC’s strive to maintain a 3-day or less turn time in house.

Try to allow 3 weeks total for shipping the item to the center, actual repair time, and return shipping time back to you.
