Pink Brompton S $1000 (I think they raised the price from the last listing):
http://newyork.craigslist.org/brk/bik/221226288.html

I'm guessing this is the same brompton, and although the price has dropped down, I'm not particularly crazy with the chosen paint-job:
$795 now

Montague Frame, if you have an old MTB you could transfer parts to this frame.

As to the Brompton Calhoun Cycle seems to have somewhat lower prices than most. I thought about that CL bike but think I would rather pay a couple 100 bucks more for a new one bought with a CC. Having bought used bikes, it is always possible that something that is not obvious wrong with the bike (IG hub?). When I bought my Birdy I totally overlooked a missing spoke (I inspected the wheel for trueness), and a recall notice.

Rare separable bike. I have only seen one of these before. I personally wonder if two wing screws are enough to hold the bike together.

This place sells new and used Birdy (plus some other) parts for really good prices: http://blackdogbicycles.com/birdyfoldingtravelbike.html. Including a Birdy Yellow for $900. (That's about the value of the frame.)

Of interest to anyone into the idea of mini-bikes this auction for 2 Junior road frames with 20" wheels might be just the thing. Longer stem, longer seatpost, new derailleur and tyres et voila - speedy minibike joy:
