It's interesting that the seller uses the wording "similar pair" for his bar end shifters. The ones that go for big bucks have the words "Gran Sport" stamped in the bodies (see Rebour Data Book) and have chromed bronze levers while the ones he is auctioning are the "garden variety" Gran Sport bar end shifters with aluminum levers, that are plentiful and common.

Maybe an honest mistake?
