Walt- One of my most favorite auctions I saw not long ago was from someone who had a set of NOS NIB Universal super 68s with a buy it now price of only $350. He claimed that they originally sold for $100. He obviously didn't buy his bike parts in 1972 at the same store I shopped. I had to pay retail of a whopping $18.50. Yes, my memory still works from back then. Cheers, Dave Anderson Cut Bank MT
