You "Could" always print up some "receipts" from "Don Expensive's Campy Emporium" showing MSRP, and also an additional markup showing the additional custom work to fine tune that part to your exquisite levels of tolerance. You "Could" always have one or two of those in your jersey pocket, or seat wedge, folded so the price was visible. You "Could" then occasionally drop it near your OCP buddies, and let them pick it up for you. They of course will be forced by the OCP ethic to read it to make sure you're not an OCPP. You just don't ever "CLAIM" that you paid that, you just let them think that.
