I think it's weathered paint also and not rattlecanned. I've polished paint like that on a stem with automotive paint scratch remover and it brought the shine right back. I personally think $100 is an OK price provided the stem and seat post are free and you aren't looking to flip for profit. I've certainly seen lesser bikes out there for $100. I agree with Bill as far as using up your hall pass though.
