Hi everybody, I am a newbie here and have found this bit of equipment in my shed and wonder if anybody has any thoughts/info on it? It is Campagnolo and quite old but never used.
BTW. I do not know how much the particular front derailleur would be valued at, but it would certainly be worth a lot ...
not enough to pay for your retirement, but ...
I've got to believe that there weren't too many made ... I've got to believe that the production run was less than 500
maybe, closer to 100 units
[*] so, the particular Campagnolo front derailleur begins as being relatively rare in any condition ...
[*] and, in its pristine condition, I would guess that a collector (yes, there are such things of Campagnolo components) might pay MORE THAN $1000 +/- for it ...
maybe barely that amount ...
but possibly, a lot more!?! I would bet on the latter, BTW
Even the original box, if you still have it, has value for collectors (!) ...
and, the box/inserts/etc. would amplify the value when paired with the derailleur ...
