Well, I got it.

For $200...with two free plastic LEDs. w00! Yeah I tried the whole haggling thing but, understandably... I got nowhere.

That said, the bike's really, really nice. As far as I can tell it only has aesthetic issues, namely a few scratches here or there (A+ thief deterrent).

ANDDDD, it came with a back eyelet for fenders & a rack + Shimano Light Action Shifters + Shimano SLR Brakes + a Fuji Seat.

Other components I yet to know anything about include: Heat Treated Titan Tech 700C rims and a Sakae Custom Modolo Patent Anatomic Bend Drop Down Stem (Maes Style).

Only thing I don't like (upon use) are the pedals: an old pair of quills with rat traps. They're nice and snug n' all , but, well--they're dangerous. I might consider getting a modern pair of clipless pedals or serrated edge platform pedals (since I like wearing more than one type of shoe...)

All in all, I'm very happy, and I guess that's all that matters.

Thanks for all of the help, I'll post some pictures if you're curious to see it. (:
