proscloset on eBay is offering wheelsets at the pricepoint with some with an "offer me" option. I picked up a pair of Reynolds Assaults for $700 last yr, brand new.

Got the parts in for the wheels and dropped them off to have them built. Should hopefully be riding them by the weekend.
The shop I dropped them off at had some NOS SRAM Red cranks. I got them for $250 installed. So new wheels and cranks and am still $300 under budget.

How much is it costing you to have them built, if you don't mind my asking? I went the build your own route, but am wondering if it would be a better use of my money/time in the future just to have them built for me.
