Chuck, I would be the first to agree. The NR derailer that I saved for and cost $29.99 at the time, now sells for that even used up! Unfortunately the example you cite was a fraud. The Road Show folks even use it as an example of unscrupulous dealers. The guy that gave the fake appraisal was kicked off the show. Garry Nold lksbks@ix.netcom.com

Almost 70deg near Seattle today, go Mariners!
