No offense taken here frankie, the price of parts and accessories is what it has become due to supply and demand. The demand is much higher than the infinite supply of embellishments availability so therefore the prices are quickly going up due to previously recorded sales figures. Simply we all keep building bikes with accessories on them and it is getting harder to find those accessories we all want. The people with them are now selling them to finance building more bikes... It's a vicious circle of love, hate, Lambretta. Either accept this or don't. I accept it and will pay the prices so I can keep building quality bikes with the ace look!
