 A few years back I ordered a section for one of my BMs but I had to send them the whole rod so they could match it up correctly. They lost my rod and ended up replacing it with a new rod with no cost. They then found my old one and replaced the tip section at a very nominal cost... Score!

 Score! I broke the tip of my favorite rod being a doo$..they replaced it with an identical at nominal cost, had to go through the original rod builder and wait quite a while though but was stoked in the end.
