Hey, I agree I'd pay the extra two dollars to have someone do it, it's only two bucks, but doing it yourself is VEEEERRRRYYY easy. If you can see and have hands, you can replace your rod tip. And a little tip for everyone I came up with one day in a pinch while I was fishing, it's not permanent but it works. IF you have a safety pin and some type of glue, you can make a rod tip.take your pliars, cut off the straight part of the safety pin that has the latch and leave the needle side, then bend the circular part down 90 degrees, put the needle dow the hollow tip of your pole and glue in place. Sometimes you may need to wrap something around the needle to make it large enough to fill up the gap in the hollow pole.

Fishing is always better than yarting, i don't know what yarting is...
BUT IT CAN'T BE BETTER THAN FISHING! lol.
