The problem is I can't find them at all. I am finding Shimano Sora ST-3300 3x8 Shifters (found on ebay new package for $130, used no cables/housing latest bid $60). Desperate to start rebuilding the bike. Go with Sora?
No! Don't go with Sora. Get the Veloce brifters. I can confirm they work excellent with Shimano 8 speed, having done this on 2 bikes now.

NEW Veloce shifters for $100 shipped: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Campagnolo-2...item415da7f7b2
