Actually, as complete as it is, his asking price is pretty fair and his shipping cost seems reasonable.

It may be a bit high.  Front wheel and forks is usually around $200 separate.  But since it is a complete package, it doesn't sound like a bad deal.  it would save you a lot of trouble of getting all the stuff together.  I personally will go ahead and give it a thumbs up.

Yeah, I've seen less complete f/e's go for that and more.  The lockset is a nice touch.

Well I "accidently" bought it. I made an offer on it but little did I know making an offer was the same as committing to buy. Oh well, it will definitely save me alot of time piecing together everything I need. Got it for $450 plus shipping. Not too shabby!
