Okay, so what am I missing here?

http://ebay.com/<blah>

These supposed BMX hubs recently sold at a BIN price of $550 USD. I'll allow that we have no idea whether anyone will ever come up with the money, but assuming that this deal goes through, isn't this slightly insane money for a set of Campy BMX hubs? Then, consider that the BMX hubs are depicted in the catalog as bearing the Nuovo Tipo style logo (the wingy thing) and round holes (on the HF) while these clearly have Record style logos and oval holes. Moreover, these hubs don't have the correct axles, but rather some sort of aftermarket titanium stuff. To me, this looks like a set Record Strada hubs with some aftermarket titanium axles and Campy pista spacers, locknuts, and axle nuts....

Or are they ultra-rare early 80's Super-MX-Record prototypes?
