I got my new 2006 Eros (actually got 2, other was for nephew's graduation) from Village Bicycle (Jim is owner) in Westpost, Mass. (
www.villagebicycle.com). Mine was right at 9 bills. He had a large inventory 3 months ago and wanted to move some, so not sure about the price. For 200. more you get a carbon fork, upgrade wheelset (Mavic Aksium), complete Mirage group and full warranty. I absolutely love mine. Good luck and let us know what you get. BTW, I have mail ordered a few bikes and the Bianchi took about 20 minutes to put on handlebar, wheels, and pedals, and that was it. I am all for supporting my LBS, but they wanted $350. more and had to order.
