Some choice Ebay offerings
Some pretty extraordinary stuff from RRB's storefront. I don't think I'm outing anything here, as these are all BIN listings. Also by the number of watchers on most of these, perhaps I'm the last BF member to see them. If not, take a look. I have no affiliation.

I can't remember who it was who first posted a link to those listings, but I remember looking at some of those bikes this past spring. There was a lot of buzz about them in the C&V forums. Looks like at least a couple of the listings have sold.

Unless I use up all of the good luck left in my life, I'll never have a bicycle as fine as these he's selling.
On a side note, I had one of his RRB house brand bikes. It was 2cm too small for me so I passed it on to my son. An interesting thing about this bike is that it was built with grip shifters.

Still learning
Other than two Paramounts, nothing else recent shows up under sold or user comments.

Unfortunately those bikes are a little old for current collectors, the collectors of those are selling their collections!!

And I would hazard that the one's not explicitly described as having original paint are repaints. And luckily none are my size, so no worries about accidental drunken BIN activity.

Are those from the the RRB in Kenilworth, IL? I just biked by the shop earlier today on a ride up North. I occasionally see frames labelled as RRB on Craigslist around here.

If you find a deal on an RRB frame I would buy it. He's a very competent builder.
