Folks, Since this has equal relevance to the i-BOB list, I plan to post it there too. (Forgive that please.) Never used 7-speed thumb shifter set with cables, housing, bottom bracket cable guide, plus related cable ends, etc. All in the original packaging, albeit a little yellowed with age. 5-6-7 compatible with a "push" 8th click.
In the early 1990's when Shimano introduced the "new" trigger shifters, I stashed these away but eventually landed on 9-speed SRAM Twist Grips which I use for mountain biking today. 
It's a bit hard for me to justify continuing to hold on to these. I do have one 7-speed bike, but it's a Bontrager CX converted to 1x7 years ago with drops and a bar end shifter. When I went to the Internet to see what folks were asking for these end-of-the-line Shimano thumbies, what I found was used and scratched shifters (only) going for $54 to $150 on eBay. Mine still have the original plastic covering on the faceplates.
Bike Recyclery had a set of NOS thumb shifters (only) for $175.
I'd love to avoid the craziness of the auction house but hesitate to embarrass myself by asking too much from this group. I'm going to ask $175, plus shipping for the set. 
My guess is that the cost of shipping could be cut considerably by shipping all in a Flat Rate box without the oversized original packaging and willing to investigate that.
PayPal preferred, PM me with any questions please.

I have a NOS front and slightly-used rear 32h hub for these shifters, if anyone's interested.

Hoooooweeee that’s a very cool part to have been stashing away. Definitely the right time to be selling these since the “vintage” mtb market is so hot right now. Long gone are the days of $15 XT thumbies from the local bike co-op. Good luck with the sale!
