You can find almost anything you need on eBay - tons of bike parts. Just go to sporting goods/cycling/bikes and parts and then do searches for the parts you needs. It's all there.

check out campyonly.com. it's a great resource site with a classified section. There aren't many deals as most of these guys know what they have but I've been able to find a few pretty rare parts over the last couple of years.

Edit: Website is under construction, should be back
up soon.

Good deal, but I'm talking vintage parts and I'm sure the original poster is also.

A guy in Italy was asking US$125 for a NIB mid 70's super record rear mech... Nigh impossible to find these days so I'm sure he got his price

I'm quite aware what the OP was asking, I just used
my gruppo as an example.
The stuff is out there, one just has to be patient
(I'm looking for a c record gruppo and a pat SR 83 gruppo).

That sounds like a good deal. I am aware that some of the vintage parts can go for top dollar. I should have stated that i was just looking for older campy parts for a rebuild and maybe not a restoration. I just want to ride!

I'll side with Marty and point out that I picked up a complete, very clean, Super Record group (certainly vintage) with a built up wheelset (Record hubs and Moskva 80 rims) for $250 as well. I think the CampyOnly classifieds are under-utilized though they don't offer the security that eBay does. YMMV.
