2000 Bianchi Veloce on local CL

Hi,

This bike has been on the local CL for a month now. It looks nice, it is close to my size. It's still around, so I'm figuring $450 is way too much? Since it's made in 2000, it probably doesn't even qualify for this forum? What say ye?

STP

I don't know that $450 would be "WAY" too much, especially considering many of the major components on that bike are newer and a bit nicer than what it originally would've been built with. If you like the bike, I'd personally consider the asking price to be close enough to use as a starting point for negotiation.

Price seems quite reasonable to me, and that's the exception, not the norm for me. If it fits, I'd go for it.
