Is $250.00 too much?

I'm looking at a set of euro wagon bumpers. Is $250 too much for for a nice set? I haven't seen them but they are reported to be in good shape.

Here's a photo, from the craigslist alert thread

Euro wagon bumpers are almost as rare as hens teeth in this country.
If you want them, buy them. Who knows if you will see another set at any price.

When I acquired my '84 Euro TD, it came with a US front bumper, and I needed to replace the badly-mangled Euro rear bumper with a spare US bumper I had for a W123 sedan.
Last summer, I was very lucky to find a complete set of Euro W123 wagon bumpers at the Virginia Beach Pick-N-Pull. Including all boots, brackets, reinforcing-bars, and the Euro backup/rear-fog lamps - $100!

Happy Motoring, Mark
