Anywhere from $500 to $850 depending on condition.
Seems the price has dropped substantially from a few years ago, with demand being satisfied by the new copies on offer.

I have a set of each, and am not interested in selling (or buying!).

I have a set of the old ones that I thought I got pretty cheap at the time. I had to clean them up a fair bit. This was before the influx of the 'new' style.

I much prefer the look of the new style over the old style but not so much that I could be bothered selling the old ones and buying new ones. For me, old ones would have to be in an as new condition for pretty much the same price as a set of new ones to win me over.

I have both old and new ones, the offsets are different on the new ones.

The new 10 x 5 sticks out further than original 10 x 6's

yeah the original 10x6 have the extra inch inwards (compared to the 10x5) so the outer rim sticks out the same as the 10x5

i have no idea what the new ones are like but they certainly look obviously/noticably very different

excellent, i was wondering what the different regarding offsets with the new mambas. perfect answers!

edit: theres a bloke selling a set of restored mambas (4 10x6, 1 10x5) for 140pound on turbomini. I wonder how they'd work out with freight
