Shimano 600EX group - almost complete
I have a Shimano 600EX group that needs a new home. These were on my Bridgestone RB-3.
RD-6208 Rear Derailleur - Great Shape
FD-6207 Front Derailleur - Great Shape
SL-6208 6 speed shifters - Great shape
HB-6207 rear hub 36h 126mm - Great Shape, but missing label.
FH-6207 front hub 36h 100mm - Bearings are a little rough. I think it's ridable.
FC-6208 165mm cranks Some strap wear on crank arms. 53 / 42 Chain rings in good shape.
PD-6208 pedals - Good shape, few scrapes on the bearing covers. I painted the covers silver when I serviced the pedals.
Two MF-6208 freewheels - six speed. 14-26 and 13-21 - Great Shape
Bottom Bracket cups and bearings with a 68 W 116 spindle - Great Shape
HP-6207 Headset. 27mm crown race. Great Shape. The keyed lock washer was thinned down a bit. It's about 1.5mm thick.
BR-6208 Aero brake levers - A little rash on one lever, but not bad. I think that can be cleaned up. I had to make some inserts for the cables. Those are included. Not pretty, but they work. Hoods are in OK shape.
No Quick Releases for the hubs.
I'll throw in a set of Shimano 105 BR-1050 short reach brakes. No pads. They are cosmetically in good shape, but the rear brake has a wonky quick release. I think those QR's have small bearings in them and they fell out. Find another rear brake (There's one on that auction site for $11) or fix this one and you've got a good set.
All you really need is some 600EX brakes to make this just about a complete set, other than the stem and seat post. Those are the only pieces I didn't locate and buy...
I'd like to sell this as a complete set. Asking $200 shipped for all. Paypal F&F please.

Am I asking too high of a price for these? I thought it was OK, based on everything that's included.

Based on what has been sold recently on the Forums, IMO, your price is high. You have a limited number of people looking for a whole group set of that age. Just an example, a 9 speed Ultegra group set recently sold here for $155 with shipping, and it was in good shape.
