A LBS (Local bike shop) has a 2005 Langster for sale and it was around $550 (I think that's pretty steep). I believe there were some relatively significant changes in the past few years with components on those things (ex. now it has a carbon fork) so be ensure that it has what you want on it.....

I'd wager an 04 pro would be around 800 NOS, wasn't it 1200 new?

Bikes: Surly Cross-Check, Specialized Langster Pro
I picked up my 04 Pro for $470 on Ebay. I got lucky because the seller listed it as just a "Langster" though so I didn't have many bidding opponents. I just knew what it was based off the description and pictures. It's an amazing bicycle and, as I've stated before, I would immediately start searching for another one if this one were stolen or crashed/destroyed.
As a side note, I had it weighed a couple weeks ago and with its current setup (Specialized Pave seatpost, Specialized Alias 143 seat, Deda 215 bars, Easton EC90 stem), it came in at only 15.64lbs. With those components and only weighing that much, it gives a softer and faster ride than my Surly Cross-Check, easily...
