To be honest if it looks like cheap rubbish to me. The rods and reels look the same as the stuff sold by Pelagic and Sambo. A quick search of the forum will be enough to answer your question on these bransd.

Having said that I know pelagic sell rebranded Omoto reels that can represent good value for money. I myself boaught an Omoto KAM300 for $100 and the thing is tough as nails. They also sell a reel that is identical to the Ajiking Wahoo and Tuff Tackle Diablo Snipers (It is also sold on ebay as a Latitude SDS Pariah 9000 and a Black Marlin something orother). Not top shelf gear by any means... but OK.

Do your research before you buy off ebay and you can pick up the odd bargain, but my advice would be to prowl the tacklestores for bargains and buy entry level name brand gear with warranties etc. The buy/sell on fishwrecked can cough up some good bargains as well.
