match for a Exel Avanti Formula pole?

I know my chances are low, but I have to try before shelving out $300
for a new pair of poles.

I have an orphan Exel pole circa 2000 - it was top of the line at the
time. Oval shaft, cork grip, non-QLS, 165 cm, 7 mm (I think) basket,
yellow-and-gray paintjob. The other pole has died last winter by means
of me having stepped on it. Looking for a similar pole (exact year
does not have to match). Or give me an offer for mine. If your orphan
pole is shorter you can cut mine to size.

The snow is coming!

I've got a new shaft from an Avanti Evolution I got in 2005 -- Oval,
100% carbon, 65gms/meter which is not the top model but second fromthe
top I think.

New Moon Ski shop probably sells the various Exel model shafts.
