Sam,

I had come across a number of pairs of these a few years ago, some Super Champion, and some Rigida, all 700c clinchers. I kept what I needed, and put the rest on eBay hoping to recover some of my cost. I was shocked when they all brought between $331 and $560 a pair. I had one pair of Super Champions, and 6 pair of Rigida's. The Rigida rims when the highest, with the SC's going at $331. All were new and still wrapped. All of them went to Japan. At the time, I had no idea that they would bring that kind of money.
