Stock up in case Campagnolo discontinues them as they did with 1992-1997 and 2009+ shifter small parts.
Fortunately, Campagnolo replaced the G-spring mechanism with Ultra Shift in 2009 which has ball bearings engaging the shift detents with separate coil springs behind them. After 24,000 miles those still work in my 2010 Centaur Carbon lever, which is 3X the time it took for my G-springs to fail because they abraded or broke from fatigue.
Wow--that was fast! Thank you so much for your help. I appreciate it.
The issue is that I was riding earlier today and all of a sudden my right shifter would not take up more than one gear per shift.
So I need to buy G-springs and carriers. Got it! Thanks again.
