Yesterday my chainset broke, I'm never going to buy another Ritchey product, but that's another story.
I toyed with the idea of getting a fancy carbon replacement before deciding it would be much more sensible to buy a bargain Ultegra. Unfortunately I forgot that I had a snipe running on an auction for a carbon one, so now i have both coming, and no money. So here are some things that I hope will keep me in beer, food and train tickets.
All items are in Hove, I can bring to London next week. Postage would be £9 for the wheels and £1.50 for anything else.
Dibs followed by PM please, payment by cash/paypal gift/bank transfer. Any questions please post in the comments so I only have to answer once. Viewing welcome any time.

Pair of Mavic GP40 rims on Campagnolo Record 32h hubs**, stainless, butted spokes - not perfectly true but ridable/easily trued. Light wear to braking surface, including a Regina Corsa 6 speed freewheel - the best of the period. Original rear skewer, lighweight replacement front. Vittoria Corsa CX tyres - front won't hold air and they are both 30 years old so should be replaced before any serious riding.Plus one Mavic ORO, gold anodised rim on a 24h Campagnolo Record hub.
No skewer - gorgeous thing and ludicrously light. Also fitted with a Vittoria Corsa CX tub - holds air but is very old.
All 3 hubs spin smoothly.
I'd rather not split. £55 for the lot SOLD**Shimano 600 Arabesque rear mech. **
A bit of surface corrosion on the bolts, but otherwise good cosmetically and excellent working order. £13
Shimano 105 5600 rear mech.
7/8/9/10 speed compatible, a few scratches but not much wear. Excellent working order. £15
Shimano 105 5500 band-on front mech.
Nominally "9 speed", but works perfectly with 10 too. Great condition, 26.8mm band. £12
**Shimano Ultegra 6500 braze-on front mech. **
Designed for 9 speed, works fine with 10. Well used, but works fine. £5
**
Suntour Cyclone dowtube shifters. NOS**.
Lovely things, friction only, can be removed from band and screwed directly on to frame bosses. £11

Hi, is the ultegra front mech just dirty or is it tarnished?
I am interested in the 105 rear mech aswell but a little bit pricey for me.
I could stretch to £23 for both. collected in London.

I sent this seller bank transfer and PM over a week ago and have not heard back from them, they have not been online since the day after I sent them the message, getting a bit worried now.

Any luck yet, dustmybroom?
Sent him a PM yesterday, as I'm still missing my Arabesque mech (paypall'ed him 10 August).
Although, he was active on the forum afterwards, he didn't reply :-(

Pair of Mavic GP40 tubular rims laced to 32h Campagnolo Record hubs, stainless butted spokes & 1x Front Mavic ORO gold anodised rim laced to 24h Campagnolo Record hub
The rear GP40 has original skewer, the front has a different type, the ORO has no skewer.
All three have Vittoria Corsa CX tyres, the one on the front GP40 doesn't hold air, but they are all 30 year old tyres so should be replaced before any serious use!
Not perfectly true, but ridable/easily truable. Hubs all spin smoothly, light wear to braking surfaces of the rims. Gorgeous (if a little grubby) Regina Corsa 6 speed freewheel on the back - best freewheel of it's day.
All 3 complete wheels £55 (for all of them, not each.)
Shimano 600 Arabesque rear mech
A little surface corrosion to the bolts, but otherwise pretty good cosmetically and in excellent working order - £12

A few scratches but not much wear. Excellent working order. Works with 7/8/9/10 speed Shimano drivetrain - £14
Shimano 105 5500 26.8mm band-on front mech.
Good cosmetically and functions perfectly. Nominally 9 speed but works fine with a 10 speed group in my experience - £12
Shimano Ultegra 6500 braze-on front mech. Well used, quite worn, but works fine. Nominally 9 speed but works perfectly well with 10 speed - £8
