First set £30 sold £120ish on ebay having reconditioned them.

Second set £20 (mates rates)

But I would expect to pay a min of £75+ and more as time goes by...

A guy often puts "recon's" on ebay with new discs. They fetch around £125 if the works good then I would say thats a fare price....
"build a sports car for £250 " youve got to laugh well least it looks good when the wife picks it up

there was a chap on ebay a while back that said he had 70 (yes 70 ) pairs, I only ever saw him sell one pair for £50, his ebay ID was ccbilly, try a search on his ID & 'ask seller a question', he may still have 69 pairs

NTDWM good luck

My local scrappy wanted £135 for a complete pair of hubs/uprights with discs and calipers and they were all rusted to buggery!

The prices on eBay for refurbs don't seem so bad.

Luckily I picked mine up elsewhere for £20 the pair. Binned the discs and calipers and got new calipers off eBay for £50 a pair. A mate bunged me a pair of surplus discs.

This made me a happy bunny, until I read another thread.
Hurry up with the new front end Rorty, please.
