Ive been offered this lot today. I want to give the owner a fair price. Any idea of the value of this lot.

Crikey that's tricky......bonk bags go for silly money at times and that's just one item!

i would think somewhere between 300 - 600 would be a fair price if its as good as it looks

so try an offer at 200 and see what happens

I tried 300. It was not enough. The owner is convinced that the campag parts are worth a fortune

If they are all new in boxes then they might have a point. A Campag nut would pay a Kings ransom for such stuff.

If the seller turned down your offer saying it wasn't enough then obviously they have a price in mind, how much does the seller think its worth

Well i think like @roadrash says they must have a figure in mind so just ask him what it is and go from there , is there 1 or 2 bikes ??

You can't be a buyer and a seller ! Ask the owner of the stuff what he wants then see if you can have a deal. If he won't be straight with you, walk away....that may make him see sense .

Lovely collection (I wish my parts bin looked like that!). Having seen the extra pics on Facebook both Rotrax look in really great condition. I think closer to 600 would still be a very good deal.

But the seller should come back with a price the have in mind so you both have an idea where you stand. The Campag stuff may well be worth a fortune but you can't sell something as a job lot and expect to get the same as you would for the individual items. If the seller wants to maximise the returns they should sell individual bits and part out the bikes (!). A job lot is cheaper because the buyer takes on the task on going through everything and reselling what they don't want (something the seller doesn't want to take on and the price should reflect that).

I guess the sellers thoughts are hovering around the 4 figure mark.....
