Patience! Seriously, I've been on the hunt for over a 2 months. I've missed a number of bikes by minutes. I'd suggest using the national craigslist search engine but with shipping, you'll end up paying too much.
On this bike, the poster listed the bike at "List $750, sale $350".....which is the new price on BikesDirect. The poster got a few flames for selling a used bike for new prices. Instead of being negative, I just offered $175 as I thought it was fair. She ended up being very nice - but was probably new to craigslist.
