Bianchi mega pro (steel), pricing help
No this isn't what I would call vintage, but no modern cyclist I've talked to can give me a concise idea, because it isn't carbon lol.
Anyway I would like to know what a 2000 bianchi xl would be worth. Just the frame, fork, and a Chris king headset.

Do you have any pics of the frame in question? I do not have a 2000 catalog but judging from the 2001 I believe the EV2 XL was a top bike in the Reparto Corse group. However value is strictly dependant on condition, location and desire. It may be in pristine condition but if it is a 63 only a few people may want it. If it is a 56 and beat up more people may be interested but will pay less for it because of cosmetic condition.

+1 Catalog page is pretty meaningless. Its all about the actual bike you are buying (or selling). OK, frameset, knock it down a lot. Buyers want complete bikes.
TIG welded aluminum with a carbon fork = there are millions of them out there. A lot of the value was in the components, which are not included.

I do not have a picture of the one I am buying yet, but here is a picture of a frame (the bike in question has a matching carbon fork)

According to bikepedia link you gave, its aluminum alloy. $400 is too high for me for just a frameset.
From bikepedia link:
Frame & Fork
Frame Construction TIG-welded
Frame Tubing Material Dedacciai triple-butted aluminum alloy
Fork Brand & Model Bianchi carbon
Fork Material Carbon fiber composite
Rear Shock Not applicable

Ahh I apologize I grabbed the wrong link. In that case I'm not quite sure what frame this is.

I was personally thinking 250 tops, but I am not an expert by any means.
