lol, you sir need to do better in school........I was going to school that cost $28K a year and I lowered that down to $9K. Now I transferred local, I am going to graduate college with no debt. OOOOHHH YYYEEEAHHH.
I would buy it for $1,100-1,250. Upgrade brakes, wheelset, and then sell the Shimano 105 components for SRAM....

Go do an ebay evaluation: look for successfully completed auctions for the bike you're looking at. Sems to be a reasonable estimation for worth.

I'd say up to $1,100. I paid $900 for a nearly new tarmac elite.

Did I ever say that? NO. I have 2/3 of the asking price saved up for this purpose, but need the rest to be taken out of the bank until my birthday in late Aug. when I can put it back. I'd wait til then to buy a bike, but I'd be back in school and wouldn't have time to ride it.
