One reason I bought now (and am accumulating other '03 parts that I can afford) is that my understanding from several sources is that '04 prices from both Shimano and Campy will be going up significantly this year. Especially as Shimano is clamping down on e-tailers and enforcing pricing policies. Won't surprise me to see Campy do the same. So I am picking up most any and all parts that I find good deals on as they come up.
