Regarding finds I think the market is ok now (but that depends on where you are looking and luck). My brother was in Sacramento this past week. While here he bought two nice Univegas, a Peugeot mixte, and an old Trek (with a Campy drivetrain and Modolo brakes) and deposited them in my garage. On the way back to the Bay Area yesterday he found a Legnano full of Campy stuff for $4 in Vallejo.

Except in regular hot selling areas, I'll guess that the selling market will get better when more college students arrive in town throughout the summer before classes start again.
