When I first started cruising yard sales I was looking for mountain bikes and passed on a Raleigh (Olympic model I think) with some high end Reynolds tubing, not 531, but I remember looking it up and realizing I passed on a really good Raleigh. They were asking $25. I never passed on a brand name bike for $25 or less after that.
I just missed a Ross Signature 292 that was my size. I didn't see it cause I was looking at the Signature 290 with a frame that was too small for me. By the time I saw the 292, someone else was walking away with it.
