Is this a good deal?
I'm looking to buy my first road/fixed gear bike. I've been looking around the threads seeing peoples opinions on certain types and I wanted to know if this would be a good deal or not or if i should haggle the price if possible.

$200 would be a good deal. $350 would be ok. $450 is not a good deal.

If the seller has *all* the original parts included with the auction and the frame is spotless, then it might be worth it.
