That just happend on one of my auctions! I sold a 1978 22.5" Trek TX-500 Ishiwata 022 frame for $331.00 I was completely floored. Two bidders w/ a total of 16 feedback between them. The paint had plenty of scratches and while in good shape, it was a rider not a museum piece. The paint was a bit of an odd color for a Trek kind of mint green think mid 60's GM paint color so maybe that had something to do with it.
