If it gives you any peace of mind, Nicole, I bought my RC4 frame on Ebay and no bike has ever been treated with more adoration. The previous owner and I emailed quite a bit, and when I had the frame built up, I sent him a picture. He was so happy it went to a good home. DH also sold his bike on Ebay to a guy who just adores it and sent us a nice update about how much fun he's having with it. So... just to say... not all Ebayers are bike butchers.
