I assume you have found some more affordable bolts by now, but in case not, here's a nice-looking Campy set for $34 shipped.

No affiliation, just bumped into those on the 'bay

I'm not certain but I think those are older because they say "Patent" on them. Newer ones say "Brev." which is Italian for patent. No idea what year the change was made, early-'80s maybe? someone here knows...
