I'm looking for a Black 409 and I am wondering if any still exist.

Hi, I hope they do. It seems that some enthusiasts have saved some for the aftermath. But they very seldom show on ebay etc. You may be lucky if You keep looking. I try to look every day for the things I need and eventually they show up. But pricing has gone through the roof on these things. Not good as it keeps a lot of nice people from getting some of the things they enjoyed in their youth or childhood.

eBay seems to be a wash with beaten up old parts for ££££ and I'm not paying for any of that.

And Pauls parts are like gold dust.

Something might come up but it could take years.

Just keep your eyes pealed, they're out there.. for example..this pair closed last week on Yahoo for less than ¥60k

No way!! That's what I have been looking for.

But I wouldn't be able to understand the Japanese website.

You don't have to, Chrome has auto translate and if you want to buy just copy/paste the url into https://zenmarket.jp/en/ and they will fwd it to your house.

Chrome translate is pretty terrible but it can translate a bit.

I will look into that zenmarket.

But i'm annoyed that I didn't see that Paul Fr come up.

It will take years to find another one.

Ive just bought a pair of NOS XTR mechs from Yahoo and EMS is currently running at 9 days door to door rather than the quoted 6.
