Re: [RBW] Crazy-priced Riv water bottles on ebay
There was a guy awhile back selling a chunk of nasty old used cable housing off his Rivendell. I think he was more poking fun at the high level of attention Riv items receive on eBay. And he was right! There is undoubtedly a premium associated with anything Riv-related (which extends to anything Nitto, etc). Some might argue that that premium is justified for various reasons, while others shake their heads at our rationale for forking over the big bucks for Riv-ish stuff. What, for example, justifies the 300% price ratio between a Sam Hillborne and a Surly Cross-check or the even larger differential between an Atlantis and LHT? They have similar ride quality and expected service life and are made by the same nice Taiwanese workers. The main differences are aesthetic and intangible feelings about the two companies/brands. Determining value of an item is purely subjective. I personally wouldn't give a nickel for any of the old French or Campagnolo bike parts that go for huge money on eBay. I also wouldn't buy that Riv bottle even at a fair price. But somewhere out there is a person who'll buy that stuff at those prices and be happy about it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Re: [RBW] Crazy-priced Riv water bottles on ebay
Don't disagree with your perspective, Jim, but this is a little different... This guy is misrepresenting what he's selling by implying it's essentially the 'original' equivalent of the Rivendell Nitto bars. We all know that's not even close. A fair price for these would be $25-$65 (or even over $100 if someone is willing to pay it). There are plenty of these out there selling in this reasonable price range. But this practice is simply unethical and shouldn't be tolerated.

Re: [RBW] Crazy-priced Riv water bottles on ebay
I don't know what really wrong with the bullmoose listing. Maybe a word in the title that you aren't happy with (Rivendell) but I would say that its fair to use it because if you want the current version / price of the bars, that's where you are going to get them. I think the description is pretty much spot on: The rare Nitto Bullmoose handlebar. Reproduced now by Rivendell. These bars are in near new condition. CrMo construction with a 22.2mm (1) stem diameter. Includes cable tensioner. Bars are original (uncut). They are listed at a $150 buy it now price which might be a tad high, but that's what eBay is about. I would have figured closer to a $100. That's why the seller has a make offer option listed. I think that sometimes we forget that people don't list things on eBay so that the masses can experience the joys of cycling. They list on eBay to make money. Period.

Re: [RBW] Crazy-priced Riv water bottles on ebay
worth a try, isn't it. I have made two purchases from pb-guy - the main guy being dissed here. He has bought rare items cheap on ebay and opened up a BIN concession. He probably lists them for free and only pays fees when they sell - if they sell at outrageous price who cares. In my case, I needed a campy DT shifter because I discovered I needed a larger cable drum to get sufficiently fast shifting. I bought the rear shifter dirt-cheap in auction. PB had the left shifter and I paid more than it should have cost by itself, but the two together were in my target range. The other item was blue REG shift lever covers, which are always cheap compared to Campy, and are important to keep my moustache barcons from marking my toptube.

Yes indeed. It appears the requisite two are competitively bidding, now. That'll likely price me out. If I wanted to set that frame up vintage, I'd leave it alone. I've had a long time ambition to do a 650B conversion on a mid 80's MUSA Schwinn. I've had a couple Paramounts, and was a big fan of the Peloton, Circuit, Prologue.

Re: [RBW] Crazy-priced Riv water bottles on ebay
I'm on this one: MUSA!http://www.ebay.com/itm/181255191434?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 A dented top tube on a pristine bike is my favorite way to RADICALLY reduce the price of a bike. Part that bad-boy out, selling the retro-chic Sante bits to the hipsters and I'll have a frameset for free (or less!)

Re: [RBW] Crazy-priced Riv water bottles on ebay
I just checked the Wayback machine and the bottle was $4 in July, 2002. Even at $72 that's 18 times the price in just 11 years. Anyone want to buy my Quickbeam, another item now unavailable, for $28,800? I paid more than the original $1600 for mine as they had no complete builds when I got mine so you are actually going to be getting a great deal - after all it's newer than that water bottle. In fact, I'll tell you what...you buy it tonight and I'll knock off 28%, just like the bottle, and give it to you for $20,736 WITH FREE SHIPPING, even if you live in CONUS (I live in Hawaii but just this once I'll ship to CONUS).
