I would love to see a receipt for a $5000 Raleigh from that time frame.   $8-900 would be more like it.  It's a run of the mill Raleigh Pro. 

Does anyone else think that the fork might be bent back just a tad?

Steve sez: I've been watching the Raleigh Professional prices these days as I bought one as part of two bike deal and mine is going on the market soon. The typi cal models all seem to sell for about the same few bucks, but the other day I s aw this one on E-bay (Item No. 180323304429). Was there really a Pro model tha t sold for $5K back in the day? If so what about this specific bike was diffe rent? Is this seller fishing or was there a much more expensive model?
