There's one on eBay at £75, comes with sunroof bag which you could sell on for upto £40 probably, so that's not too bad is it?

That's cheap. Blinds were worth £35-£50 in 1994 when few cars needed one and parts were plentiful. Now the cars are rare and increasing in value and most cars being dismantled are knackered, meaning that there are far, far fewer good parts available.

I have one, but wouldn't sell it for less than £100.

 

[944 man]

Id say buy it, but the vendor is one of the partners in DVS, who don't have a brilliant reputation.

 

[944 man]

I think that a battered one sold for £50 recently.

I left one on a set of seats I sold...did not realise they were worth good money....

 

[944 man]

Oh yes! I have two then...[]

I've read a lot of negative stuff about Douglas Valley Breakers and I've laughed at some of their absolutely comical pricing too.

However, I bought a power steering pump from "SteveStrange" on eBay - it was the cheapest on there, arrived in 24 hours, was exceptionally well packed and included the little spacers for mounting and the adjuster bar too (these are selling for £10-15 alone). It was packed up with Douglas Valley Breakers tape so I was very pleasantly surprised!

Perhaps their eBay arm via that account sells things at normal prices to make up for their website prices

I've never had problems with DVB-their formula seems to be New price x 40%-there again have always picked items up -sharp intake of breath sometimes allows some price reduction.
So my blind seems very cheap[]

I've got one I picked up ages ago for next to nothing. Good condition, it sits in it's packaging waiting to be needed, or to sell on at some point.

I've said before I think good interior parts are worth collecting now. Un-cracked dashes, door cards without water damage, the roof trims, they are all going to get rare.

I have just bought a pair of end caps from my OPC. They are now only available in Black and the ones I got matched up to my existing MY88 roller blind and also my MY91 Roller blind. Not sure when the changeover was done, but presume it is on very early cars?
