... what to make of the obverse of this equation then? recently paid what anyone on this list would consider in their right mind way, way too much for a few bit's of plastic and pot metal, well bicycle related bits all the same. ... too me it was a bargain, i knew the dear seller, and i knew they could use the dosh. ... one can pluck the red rose from the manure pile i guess and be done with it. however this was my third cultivation so to speak, the third (and final) purchase of these bits over some several years. to complete the peloton so to speak. ... although we may or may not ever deal with this person again (but we still do) sometimes the obverse of the coin yeilds the better result over time. ... anyway neat story of your own mikie! sounds like you know how the "roses" grow ...
