Why on earth was the price so high? Seems pretty ridiculous to me...

Gee whiz, why didn't you point that out sooner? The auction has ended and now I'll just have to find another one.

The other thread is on the regular C&V page. It's a 'value' question, but not (I don't think) one where anyone here was asking seriously.
If a member here is interested in components at that price...hey there buddy! I have a swell delrin Simplex derailleur that'd knock your socks off! Hardly any cracks in it!
