I believe that a used Campy 50th Aniv Gruppo sold for about $750 on ebay last week. Ebay prices are like riding a roller coaster in the dark... it is hard to see where prices are going because the track is always changing market with demand and supply.

items in excellent condition typically fetch on Ebay. Interestingly enough,
I added it all up and came out with $740 (BB=50, crank=150, ped=75, ft
der=35, RR der=85, shift=10, post=75, hs=60, brakset=130, hubs=70). I'd say
the guy's asking price is pretty unrealistic, given that these are typical
prices that these items command on Ebay, WHEN SOLD INDIVIDUALLY, in
excellent condition. Will anyone want ALL of these items in these exact
configurations as badly as people might want individual items? No way. Add
to this the fact that Ebay prices reflect Ebay fees. These fees are
probably well worth paying to reach a large audience, but this guy is
advertising to a much smaller audience and paying (presumably) far less to
do so. If I was looking for a complete group (which I never am) and all the
specs on this one worked for me (they don't), and if I could be sure of the
condition (I can't) I'd offer a!
