If those prices are viable, I can retire now.
If however an early spesh allez carbon is worth 450
and a 600 tricolor r derailleur £35, then i carry on working until the state pension kicks in at 67, and probably beyond

But let's not forget, all you need is 2 desperate buyers and a dash of rarity.
That specialized allez cost more than £1500 in real terms when it was new.
It's not the same model, but with campag it's costing $5000 at modern prices

I’d be very happy to get £450 for my Epic Comp with full Tricolor.

 

[bikeworkshop]

Well although we got 450, there's 20% vat on sales.
Pays for hospitals and schools.

Oh and ppe off baroness mone, and wcr redundancy packages.
