For instance, if I were to say, the blue MASI GC seems over-priced ($2k) given that it has clinchers and galvanized spokes, a crappy seat, repro lever hoods and no bar tape, would that be okay? It has some good components on it, too. However, it seems like it needs new wheels (hubs, rims, spokes, tires) and a few doodads that could easily cost $500-$600 above and beyond the purchase price. That would take it up into the $2500 range. It is a very nice bike but it is far from pristine. I thought $2k was high but when I realized I'd have to add all that additional equipment, it seems very high, really like a deal breaker. What do you thin k about that assessment? Am I being fair, or do I just not understand the price/value of an older MASI?
If the above is inappropriate, I will remove it.
