I remember when it was mostly guys like me buying parts you needed and selling parts you didn't. Then Ebay became big business and the really good deals began to go away because the sellers more and more became businesses and there were fewer and fewer guys like me. For example, I bought two brand new Brooks B-17 saddles a few years ago and I paid $45 for one and $42 for the other one. No way I could ever find those deals again. I used to buy vintage parts just because they were so cheap. Now, I just don't see those great deals and for new parts I just go to the LBS.
