Who wants serious spouse problems?
Check out https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...sPageName=WDVW and then start thinking of excuses to get it past the spouse. 
It probably retailed for about $1K back in '78 so with inflation it's actually a deal today. Wouldn't work with my wife but maybe someone else will have some luck....
Pretty bike and in a "regular" size (happens to be my size too). Oftentimes the quality NOS stuff is really tall.
Just "outing" it, no relation etc., etc.

I saw that one. Major spouse problems would come from
the NOS masis that were seen on e-bay recently.
Not my size and English aren't my style
(although I have been eyeing bob jackson and
Hobbs of Barbicon!).

Nice bike though.
Sometimes being broke has its benefits.

I always watch for for this particular model Raleigh. I have seen them sell for $500-$900 & a few years ago a N.O.S. in the box Professional like this one sold for $1800 in our Seattle-Tacoma area. Also, check this one out: item # 3678526988, been listed twice w/out any bids. I'll just keep looking for one in the $200-$300 range. Don

Nothing rides quite like a Paris-Roubaix Seta, the tire that came stock on the 76' Pro.

Hey, that Team Pro is not too big for me! Where is it for sale?
As I recall (and the age comes through here), the Raleigh Professional sold for around $750 back in 1978. I agree on the workmanship of the later bikes. My classic ride is an early 70's Falcon San Remo with a chromed sloping crown fork and chromed frame lugs. You just don't see that level of finish on bikes made even in the 1980's, let alone today.
