I think price is fine. Unusual paint, desirable brand, and niche model. Shipping is realistic too. This one should sell.

If it is your size, and you have room in the budget, you probably won't see another one for a while.

Paint is really cool, but the rest of the bike is eh... 105, mismatched wheels and tires, dented top tube, needs a cleanup/tuneup, not worth $365 to me even if it was my size. I'd consider it at about half that.

But on ebay, I'm sure it'll sell.

+1 That era 105 is really so so. I didn't notice the dent, should have read closer. That will hold it back.
