Simple answer is NO i would not regardless of the money (guess your looking at the 1 on Feebay for £40 ish) for that money you can now adays get brand new rod with warranty.
In my mind all people are paying for is the stanciled name on most kit, personally i'd rather pay less and get the same kit without a brand name.
Personally i have never bought rods unless i actually need them and as i already have 6 rods for feeder/lead work i would never buy another as these days i dont use half of what i already have.
