A few years ago Walmart had a bike with 105 shifters/derailers for $500-600. It was called the Corsa. Deal of the century.
And you still get what you pay for. While talking with one of my friends at the LBS he told me about a guy who'd bought an LHT clone to take on a tour. Before the ride was over he was so unhappy with it that he sold it for around $500.00, with a Brooks saddle. And he admitted that had he just gone ahead and purchased a real LHT he wouldn't have needed to upgrade it or be unhappy with it.
