Why are Shotgun seats so expensive?  :-[ Is it just because they are harder to find than an Elina or Kashimax Aero for example?   :-\

The blue ones used to command the dollars as folk wanted them for their Gen 1 Haros.

Someone somewhere paid a ridiculous price and suddenly a precedent is set...

That's very true most people I knew went on about brakes and cranks.  :)

People whine about re-pops when in reality this is a perfect example of what's killing this hobby, pure GREED!

part hoaders and people with too many bikes are pushing the prices up . greed . agreed. it may be propotionateley more justified if people actually rode them regularly or did something with them.

Just looked at 'rockchick' on eBay ... He's got those Nos stems he was selling at MK for £170 on for £235!!! And a nos gold suntour stem on for similar money.....
Greed ... I agree ... It's killing this hobby ...
At these prices if a Repop is a good copy then I'm all in ... Sorry guys but £25 instead of £200 for A'me Unitrons for example just makes more sense ...  ::)
