i would say £200 tops for these, who's selling them at £400?
-
Mr Vert....
150 quid a caliper and 100 quid for a pair of tech 3's
Blimey....
I would pay 2 all day long!

weeksy mate, put a wanted up for some and put on it you will pay £200. i am sure that will tempt someone into parting with a set. :daumenhoch:

WHS ^^^^^
Not everyone is a greedy fooker, running a business or not that's just a plain greedy price :daumenhoch:

sad thing is somebody desperate will end up buying them, he's prepared to sit on them for months as he isnt desperate to sell, so he can make up his own prices... they will be up to £500 in maybe a year or so...
i would just sit back and wait till they come up on ebay....

I have just bought a full set of Blue mx1000s and Nos tech 2 for £80 :shocked:

Have a word with Dom, PHPPSIO on here, he is selling some stuff, he may have a set going ???
-
Or if you can handle serious good copy's then i have some that need shifting. Both with quick release and tech 3 levers in very good condition, plus they come with spare blue tech 2's. the MX on the caliper and levers look genuine DC! let me know? :daumenhoch:
-
doesn't vertego have mx900's for £199
-
i used to get new brakes all the time back in the day and im fooked if i knew if they were dc or copies. :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\
some of the copies look spot on. :daumenhoch:
-
I think we all did fella, for 20 odd quid a set so I remember?!

i would just sit back and wait till they come up on ebay....
And the reason he's not desperate to sell them is that he only paid maybe 10% of the for sale price tops, with margins lke that you can sit on them for a very long time :daumenhoch:
-
Now that's not right....
Some nice offerings coming up now.
Just want a perfect set with tech 3's, anybody?!
-
i have one mint rear blue one with a mint tech 3, if you have a full set of mint chrome ones front and rear... and some cash for you... ;)

10% :shocked: a lot less than that Marty, I've brought a few sets off him a few years ago for £45, so I would say he was getting them for around £12 a set.
-
Same here, I can still remember buying NOS sets for £45 :daumenhoch:
-
foolish people fooled by ebay prices ::)
-
if people stop buy them at 200 quid then the price would come down ,suppy and demand ,but you got to be pretty mad to pay 200 for a set
-
But 200 quid will still not get me a new set fella, so that is clearly not 'market' price.
And it's a lot better on the wallet than 400 quid dude
Somewhere somewhere wants to sell me their mint NOS brakes, they just don't know it yet :LolLolLolLol:
Cheers

Be patient , get some wanted ads out there & pick them up bit by bit if need be ;)

12.50 was the list price from shiners as late as 2004 , but i bet if you bought a lot , it was less
so at 400 quid , thats pretty good going
honestly wait and you will pay 150 on here , thats about right
