Thanks for the info. That was a good buy you made. I was looking at this Trek 1000 on ebay and it went for $127.50.

Of course it makes no sense to buy a bike on ebay and pay almost the price of the bike for shipping. I guess some ebay sellers live in such a small market they have to sell on the bay.
Here in Socal it might have sold for $150 if it's clean. There are more than a few CL hunters that snatch up most anything that's a decent road bike just to flip it.
