I always keep an eye on ebay for possible bikes and came across this one. As far as I know new ones only cost something like half of that price dont they?5900 (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3621697532&category=7298)

The advertised retail for an '03 Trek 5900 is $4,729.99 according to the company website.

I don't care if the saddle came drenched in Lance Armstrong's personal sweat, paying $12,100 for any bicycle is just flat crackers.

But then, I'm a devout cheapskate.

That auction is so obviously a scam, and I'm assuming that the high bidder is "stinkbidding" the auction. Some of the people over at RBR forums do this for entertainment. I doubt that a scammer would complain, so I might just go there and bid it up even higher. Who knows, maybe it'll crack the $25k barrier?
