These are one of those interesting products that for some reason calls for top dollar a lot that I just don't understand. I've never paid more than $5 for a set, but I've seen them go for around $100 for one pair NOS w/o box. I just don't get it, sure if it's a period piece and you "have to have" the brakes for correctness. I guess I'm just not romantic to the point where braking doesn't matter.
