The last time I've seen the King/Bontrager hubs on ebay, they were hundreds of dollars. The 1999 set I have on the Bontrager Privateer are 24/28 hole hubs. The main difference between the Bontrager version and the Classic Kings of the era were that the Bontrager version has beefed-up flanges to support the radial front and half-radial rear lacing that the stock wheels came with. IIRC.
I did get a silver 32h 135 King classic rear hub from ebay for ~$120 shipped a couple years ago.
