Old school Ringl'e component prices

[Brewza]

What sort of dollars should someone be paying for 1990 onward Ringl'e skewers, bottle cage, stem, seatpost, headset etc.
I have the chance to pick up some of these items here in New Zealand and I would like some opinions as to their value.
I understand what you want to pay is totally personal preference but I would love to gauge whether I sould pay what this person is asking or should he buy dinner first (if you get my meaning)

search them on ebay with the completed auction box checked. I've seen NOS skewers go over 200 USD

Blimey, Ringle......

I used to love my bottle cages, until the anodising wore off and it used to mess a new bottle up in one ride with all the black marks.

Nobody makes cool stuff like that now do they? :evil:

I paid around 200 USD for s complete NOS set of silver skewers

40 USD for a front black hub super bubba in great condition and 150 USD for a NOS rear hub super 8 in black as well.

I hope that information can help you.

Ringlé: color does matter!
I learned 3DV cost more than red and blue costs more than silver.

Also: size does matter!
a 3DV stem in 120mm 1 1/8"no rise will cost twice as much as a 3dv 1" 150mm quil stem!
a 29.4 blue seatpost will cost triple the money compared to a 28.6 in silver.

Are you talking NOS or used?

Since I have an addiction for Ringlé I would probably have bought the stuff already...

 

[Brewza]

Thanks for the info guys. Most of the parts are blue and used.

a 29.4 blue seatpost will cost triple the money compared to a 28.6 in silver.

26.8 maybe, not 28.6.

But yes, when it comes to Mobys, size definitely does matter...
