They've actually been overvalued on ebay over the past year, going for $500+
They really aren't worth more than $250 to $350 in average condition with a mix of parts. I'd only pay $500 if the condition is excellent, and it has complete black m730 kit.

That’s a great price, but I’m not sure about the drop outs? are that a really early Ultra?

It has a fillet brazed seat cluster, with tig welding everywhere else. It's a Japanese made Ritchey, finished by Tom Ritchey over here. Is there such thing as an "early" Ultra? Thought an Ultra is an Ultra, is an Ultra.

ahhh, I guess there were 80's Ultras with the cut out in the rear drop out, and then the 90's Ultras with the solid piece dropouts, yes? I would guess yours to be a 90's Ultra, but I'm sure there are people that know better...perhaps I should do some googling.

Yeah i think mine is a -92 but it seems impossible to get an exact year.
