The sidewalls are amber or 'skin' coloured as opposed to an all black tyre as modern ones tend to be.......

Not wanting to quote high school economics, but this is in part symptomatic of the growing 'interest in' and 'membership of' this great site. The demand for 'stuff' inevitably increases (exponentially in some cases) as newbies find the for sale section. NOS stuff is also by definition finite in supply and infact will reduce over time (especially if you go and actually use the stuff - god forbid!) . Either way both cause prices to rise.
Would i pay over £150 for a pair of tyres....probably not. Am I surprised...definitely not. Our "lovely little hobby" is indeed iatrogenic. [That is an illness caused by a doctor if you cant be @rsed to look it up]
