You could probably get $100 or so for a set. I had a set of those on my old LeMond and never had an inch of trouble with them (and I am 210lbs). For me they were a terrific everyday wheel. I would gladly pay $100 for a set for backups. I like them even more than my current stock wheelset, in fact.
Cheers,

I would think they would sell as well. In spite of being heavy, they are a dependable wheel. I rode a set of SSR for almost a year at well over 200# and never needed to turn a spoke.

I got about $150 for a set on eBay last year. It was an easy sell since I put a couple videos of the wheels spinning in the truing stand on Youtube so the buyer could really see what they were getting.

Sold a set on CL to a guy who wanted training wheels. Put it low enough and someone will buy it.
