That was a special limited edition "South Paw" version for left handed riders. I believe they were sold exclusively by Flanders Leftorium.

Trek 730, R531, Shimano 600 (Arabesque). $480 obo +$100 shipping (located in Cali).
I've only started looking at Trek (though their touring models) - this seems to be a decent deal considering the 'Make an Offer' option. More so if you're local'ish and can circumvent the shipping fee. Correct me on pricing if I'm wrong - I don't have a feel for valuation on these yet...
...or...
A clean 500 series, BIN $299.

I don't understand the drive line being for left-handed riders. Maybe the brakes and/or the shifters. I don't see any benefit to this.

And it's built in Chicago. Probably in their Paramount division. You can tell by the round logo on the box.
