A couple of my driveside crankarms ('73 and '74) opened at $50 and $30 respectively. No one even bit.
Wrong time of year?

Maybe, I purchased a TA chainring I needed at the starting bid, I manually sniped at 8 seconds to go, a handful of other watchers but no one else participated.
As to orphan crank arms, orphans are needed when they are needed, not bought as an item for potential use. You need to do a bit of marketing in your copy or sub header… "Check your Campagnolo cranks… see any cracks starting at the root of the arms adjacent to the crank?, if so, you NEED these, ready to go"
