I think your estimate of £100 for 28 hole DA7600 is way off.
These are only available as Japanese import and usually about £250 before shipping and duty etc.
Curious to know why you value the rims at £300 too?.....
Dollars or pounds; I’d say it’s a fair price. -
So they can pacify Mummy / Daddy / Spouse that they're acting responsibly but then want to look 'cool' as soon as they're out of range!

(tongue in cheek) Do roadies have something against people with straight handlebars?
To be clear, I've been riding for just over 30 years and back in the old days when cycling as a hobbie was still very niche, it was generally accepted etiquette to acknowledge other cyclists.
Now I accept that nowadays things are different to say the least but here's what I've noticed.
Until a couple of weeks ago I had drop bars on my Cinelli Vig commuter. I would say about 90% of commuters would give some form of acknowledgement, albeit a "good morning" or a wave or a nod or a hand gesture.
I decided to try out riser bars. Since then that 90% has dropped to about 10%. Saturday morning I passed 6 roadies who all just stared at me in a state of confusion. I then passed a 7th on an uphill stretch who was obviously so put out that he felt the need to sprint past me with an inch between us at full pelt just as I was stopping to use the cashpoint.
I can only assume his emotional response was something along the lines of "Oh the indignance of being passed by someone 'not on a real bike'! How embarassing!" -
Even more intriguing; what are your reasons for a non-vegan lifestyle?

Best of luck getting that kind of money.
Just for reference I recently bought that exact same model in a 56 for less than half what you're asking. Admittedly a couple of the components weren't as nice but I only use it as a commuter.
Bear in mind a brand new vig is about £1200 -
Another chancer messaged me this morning "Hey I'm interested in this item but am really pushed for cash at the moment. Wondering what would your best price be?"
Oh so your really pushed for cash? Oh well maybe I should just give you the thing for free what with you being a total stranger and all! Oh wait, just a minute, guess what? Actually I don't give a fuck!

Thanks. I would hope that a fork from a well known brand would use substantially solid material.
I mentioned that I like the Dura Ace track nuts as are they are virtually if not completely smooth on the inside so don’t chew up drop outs.
They’re also small enough to fit forks with lawyer lips without having to file them off.
Is it this one:-
