I still don't understand how you act surprised at their prices. It just doesn't seem like you are genuinely surprised, because it is obvious to anyone who thinks about it for a bit how they achieve the prices they do.

That's why you seem like a shill.

A real customer would say, "I bought a great bike at a great price."

A shill says, "How DO they achieve such LOW LOW PRICES? Economic theory must be WRONG!!!"

There's lots of happy Motobecane owners at BF; it's always amusing when someone is *shocked* at their prices and makes that the topic of their first post. That's why you are getting the reaction you are.
