Don-

I'm pretty sure that I have never offered Campy hoods for more than $37, and that was a while back. Also, you make me sound like a real skank. I ain't.

I have sold a LOT of stuf over the last 10 years, way more than anyone thinks, I bet. But, I promise you that my average net profits add up to way less than $4 per hour spent on this hobby.

I do it cuz I love it.

If you want world-logo or shield-logo hoods, there are a few scalpers who will charge $75/pair (shield-logo). Velostuf comes to mind. You can find world-logo and shield-logo on ebay, and sometimes the hoods are cheaper with levers attached, and cheaper still with levers & handlebars & stems attached. I bought some nice fresh shield logo hoods for $100 and they came with a bicycle attached. Well, that wasn't the only purpose i had for that bike ...
