What is this worth: Campy Chrous hubs and Colnago aero signature seat post?

Hello, you can see the pictures from the link bellow:

https://plus.google.com/photos/10660...CNjV_ZnekajYeQ

Please note that seat post has 2 hairline cracks around the center bolt. I hope it's visible enough from those pics. It probably has been overtightened in the past. Doesn't seem to get any bigger.

The Chorus hubs are early 90s model with center oil ports.

Thank you!

Cracked seatpost = whatever you can get for any usable nuts and bolts.

Hubs = $50

Yep, it made me quite sad when found the cracks. Although, I've been using it like that for some 5k kilometers. It's perfectly usable to me. I hope to find a suitable Colnago to put it on

Any thoughts on that hubs, those ebayers must be crazy to pay up to 4 times that 50$ price tag that guy put on em...

Asking price?? Or completed successful auctions?

If you plan to sell on ebay, just look at completed auctions, those figures will be more accurate than what I can give. Realize ebay is the land of variance, one item will sell for X and one day later, the same item might sell for 5X. Your marketing skills, ability to ship anyway, and some luck all enter into it. A quick glance and I see prices are all over the place...Typical ebay. Hopefully, you will get towards the high end.

Please don't confuse ebay "asking" prices with "selling" prices. Many sellers never get their ask price. some are far from it. Value is determined once an item actually SELLS. Its easy enough to check SOLD prices.
