Is it me being a old guy but I look at some of the asking prices of CB72 CB77 parts and the price is so high one American dealer Sichley Cycle Parts are asking so high most parts are new BUT at one hell of a cost. And if you live in the UK then you must add import tax to the total cost and that can be high.
They put a price on the item then do not sell so lower the asking still not selling. Am I out of touch with to days prices ?.

I have found that parts range from reasonable to very high. Usually the expensive parts are the rare ones so I guess this is just the hegemony of capitalism at work. I can pay to be patient and check out all the other sources. Also, search globally for the part number. I have been surprised where parts for sale have turned up.
