I wouldn't be surprised if this is a little north of that in price because hell, it's shinier.

it's pretty, but that seems to be the only attraction to me. hell you could get a soma rush and a prestige fork for what, $600? and then you have a heat treated frameset that looks just as nice.

but of course it won't have the cachet that comes from having a sticker on it that says "columbus."
