Dude, if you've been riding road bikes for a while then:
A) You know the difference between bad, mediocre, good, and great bikes and components
B) Barring any unforseen SUPER DUPER LUCKY HOOKUPS, you know that you get what you pay for when it comes to bikes.
C) You won't enjoy riding a $400 conversion/beater like you would something else with higher quality parts.
Don't let the people who are estatic riding $400 conversions get it twisted for you. If you are riding roadies that cost the loot that good roadies cost, then you may not like their bikes.
I'm just sayin'.
