Bike out on CL that I thought about buying on a whim:

I am selling a Specialized Allez 56cm road bike. Great bike I used it for last year, my first year of riding, and its just too big for me. Previous to that it spent alot of time in a friends garage. I few scuffs on the drops, and right brake lever from brushing a wall. Let me know when you want to see it, I am looking for $500.

It's an '02 Allez A1 Sport 27 based on my research. What do you think a fair price is?

My LBS has a '07 Allez on closeout for $549, and '08s for $649. They also have a '07 Allez Elite for $999 (SOOOOOO tempting). I'd say offering $350-400 would be reasonable, if it rides nice.

Cool info - thanks man.

None of my local LBS have Allez in stock, even the one where I grabbed my Hardrock. So I couldn't determine new pricing and this was the only one on CL used. Obiously dont' need it right now with the new HR but my Trek Navigator 300 is on CL and I have 2 potential buyers coming tomorrow, so getting my future roadbike, if on a deal, I would love to do.
