Campy groups have always been more expensive than the equivalent level Shimano components (assuming you accept that any Shimano component is ever equal to a Campy component.). It's the price you pay for the name and exclusivity and, in in few cases like brifters, for a better design. If you want to stick with Campy, bring deep pockets.
