This model of bike was a Giant bike built for and raced by Tomac. I thought that the magazine article was talking about the prototype rock shox shock rather than the bike

Worth it for the parts alone, XTR, Syncros Ti post etc!

hmm, perhaps, so long as you didn't have to pay the $138 shipping fee

Ahhh, we non-Americans don't get to see the shipping costs of 'domestic' auctions-that is a pretty penny for shipping. None the less, with syncros ti posts selling a $150, thats the shipping covered!

$138 is on the higher end, but not too bad considering it's UPS Ground. USPS Parcel would've been considerably cheaper.

@GoldenEra: What do you consider a "good" price for shipping a whole bike domestically? From what I've seen, shipping is right around the $100 mark on most auctions.

Lately I've been seeing the Syncros Ti posts go for a bit less, but it would be a reasonable bargain if all parts were needed, and would've been bought at their premium individually

Shipping a whole bike in a single large bike box, via UPS, within the Conti USA, can be done for around $80. If poorly packaged, $100, if perfectly packaged, in two boxes, and shipped via USPS parcel post with delivery confirmation, $65.

In addition, shipping zones make a difference. Shipping a package from California to New York will be more expensive, than shipping a package from Maryland to New York City, sometime significantly more.

Yes you can.
Copy the http:///xxxxxxxx from the top of the page, then sign out of ebay. Then paste the address in the bar at the top while you're signed out.
Ebay forgets where you live. :twisted:
Sometimes there is also an option when logged in to change shipping location on the item's page under the S&H tab.
