I've sold a couple rods I've had over the years but that's it. One was a custom 14 weight made by some famous guy at the Golden Gate Casting and Angling Club in San Francisco. He was a real nice guy and I sold it back to him. I had his contact info in the rod tube.
I've only used 3 rods my whole life for trout fishing. A custom my dad had made for me, a Sage VPS and now a Helios. All fast 5 weights.
