Well if we're talking procurement:

My Cervelo (I know, not C&V but whatever) I got from a guy on my local CL. I ditched work at 10 AM to go snag it and essentially raced a local bike flipper to it. I got to the seller's place and it turned out to be a wicked awesome mansion type place and the seller had a tattoo over every inch of his body. He said he didn't ride the bike and wanted someone to use it for what it was built for. I made out like a bandit and drove home with a stupid grin on my face. That stupid grin is still here, I just detailed and tuned the bike this evening.

The local flipper beat me to an all-original Super Leggera earlier that week for $500. My deal smoked his, and I think he kinda hates me for it!

My Bianchi is less thrilling, BG ID'd the bike for me and I went up North of Boston to grab it. It came with no rear wheel and a front tubi with no tire. Flipped the wheel (which I regret) and got a set of wheels from an ex-racer that I work with for way cheap. The rest, as they say, is history. I'm getting a celeste colored, Bianchi branded Turbo tomorrow.
