Good lord. You are referencing the price of a 10 year old used bike? Well thats a worthless datapoint when it comes to how much a bike with Sora should cost from a shop in 2021.

A bike I bought in 2015 for $360 had 600 tricolor from 25 years earlier, but that isnt reason for me to think a new Ultegra bike should cost less.
