Have you looked on e bay to see if any have been sold recently or offered for sale?
You may well get more for the parts than the whole.
All new comers to cycling seem to think they need a bike with disc brakes, hence selling a bike with rim brakes is tough going .
As said the market is way down . I think a lot of folk are wanting for the budget.
Disposable income is also way down .People are keeping any spare money for Christmas.
Even parting to out will take a while.
I bought a Trek last week with Shimano Ultegra group and bontrager finishing kit for £100
The present market is flooded with this type of bicycle. Supply and demand.
