What would you pay for this set of cams? How old would you say they are?

Thanks!

Mid 1990s. Maybe $35 per cam depending on condition not including the 4.5. That one is slightly more rare. But used gear never ceases to amaze me on how much people pay on here. New generations can be found for under $50 on sale pretty often.

i concur on that! i bought a brand new set of C4s (.5-3) for 255 here. The same set with a .4 added and pretty used up is currently on the boards for 275.....and somebody PM'd within an hour. amazes me.

20$ per cam for the smaller sizes personally ... a bit more for the larger ones ... but folks will likely pay more

the prices for used cams makes no sense much of the time as you may have to resling it ... for which you pay ~3-7$ per cam plus shipping and need to wait a few weeks ... you already out 25-30$ per cam

you can buy good new cams for 40-50$ (metolius, BD) often when theres a sale and with cashbacks

I think bearbreeder has it. $20 each for small. But again, you could get more on here.

25 each for the sizes 3 and under, 3.5-5 are 40-50 each. They are bomber and last forever. The axle boss is much more resistant to the ovalizing the c4s experience. The con is they are heavy.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
