I joined the list around August of 2004. By then John Barron's Masi's had already come and gone, but I'm not sure how long before. I don't know how much they sold for, and I don't know if they were sold through the list or eBay. In any event, I'm wondering what those bikes would go for today if offered on eBay. I'm of the opinion that they would fetch substantially higher prices than they did back when they originally sold (2 to 3 years ago?), easily somewhere in the $5-7,000 range. What do you think?

I'm sure you're right. One of them sold on eBay for $3827.27 on 6/30/03. One that was unwrapped and ridden maybe a hundred miles was sold for $1800 (a generous move on John's part, IMO... I'm sure it would have gone quite a bit higher on eBay). Another was sold to a listmember and I've got some photos of it but I don't know what the sale price was. Perhaps John will fill us in on some of the others.
