This guys stuff and one or two others always seem to bring way more money than anyone else selling 250r parts. I get it, but I don't get it.

Why not just buy new shrouds from honda for cheaper? http://www.ronniesmailorder.com/fiche_section_detail.asp?section=117918&category=ATVs&make=HONDA&year=1985&fveh=2816

My guess, if he is getting more money than other sellers is either he has a reputation for selling good stuff on ebay and has a following...or, he is having other friends, family, bid his stuff up.

The thing that sucks is that now everyone selling stuff thinks this crap is now worth more than it really is because it went for x-amount on E-Bay.

are your other shrouds bad brother? Bring em over to the house and I will throw em on the wheel for some polishing this week. I have a plastic polish compound that I can use to make em like new again, or are they not worth saving?

No I've got two sets. One new in the boxes and another almost perfect that I bought about 13 years ago new from Honda for $25 each. Thanks though dude. I do have a 200x fender that could use the treatment.
