I think if you expect to get vintage exotic stuff brand new you can expect to pay a bit more than LFGSS prices. However I don't think Nigel's prices are "inflated" (as in increased just because he can). I'd guess this stuff is pretty hard to track down and secure.
If you want any old brakes or maybe to drop lucky, hang around on here and you'll get what you need cheap. If you want obscure and (in some quarters) highly-prized stuff, expect to have to pay for it. If you want to see real profiteering on old parts, get into old motor bikes or cars.
