I just use a spacer (placed under the fixed cup), and then use the same length spindle on the new bb. Your LBS should have a variety of spacers, I keep a stash of them on hand myself. I almost exclusively work on vintage bikes, and asymmetric bb were the norm.

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.
