Shimano 100 Works Anniversary book

Instead of bringing out a 12 speed Dura-Ace anniversary gruppo like everyone thought, Shimano released a book.

There was a lottery to be able to "win" the opportunity to buy 1 of 2000 copies of the limited edition book. I applied and have just recieved a well dodgy looking email letting me know that I am now one of 2000 people who should send 10 000 Yen for my book. I duly clicked on the link and put in my credit card details.

Have I been mugged off after years of being a Campag guy or will I actually recieve a book that will be highly sought after and increase in value exponentially?

65 quid? thats like 1/3rd of your AXS cassette, do it.

or 1.5 flat top chain.

I can't get trade price on the book but I like your logic.

Already SOLD OUT

i live by this logic, every adulting expense I avoid or postpone gets converted to bike parts

It's going up in value. I will give you £80 for your copy.

Ooooh, there's a futures market already!

Ok, I see your game. £85?

I'll wait until Elon tweets about it

I bet the pages turn better than any book Campag or Sram have made. ;)

Ha!

look forward to seeing the fishing section

Any minute now it'll be worth more than a pair of 7sp era XT thumbshifters

I will pay £87

fishers love spending money on useless shit too right?

signed up for this... "won"

anyone want mine?

Yes please.

If @Señor_Bear pull outs, I’ll take this!

Too late bro. I've already paid for it.

I've always enjoyed the line my mate dropped:

Expensive fishing gear caught a lot more anglers than it ever did fish

lol, perfect

Quite a few folk must have bailed on the first draw. The second chance saloon has come through for me.

any update?
