Even though I no longer have a spree I still look on EBay at what is available and the ridiculous prices being asked. Here is one of the many. The shipping is more than price and the shipping is crazy high.

how common is it for these parts to wear out anyway? i've got some that are a lil rusty on the outside but still function fine, although thinking about it, these bikes are either owned or previously owned by people who don't know what grease is or where it goes..

They probably won't wear out as much as they would dry out. 30+ year old grease is not good. A simple soak in a rust inhibitor, then re-grease and they should be as good as new. Sure wouldn't pay $50 for some. As for the shipping. It's because of where you live. Seller miscalculated. The American version of those listings has a much lower shipping price.
