Is this a fair price?

Ok I give up, for some reason I can't download the picture the right side up.....sorry....lol....tilt your head, it's a really nice bike

I bought it bran new from a LBS its a Giant Anthem 2 with tax I paid $2466.00
It's exactly the bike I wanted, it's light, full suspension, great gearing, and I really like the paint job. It's not screaming masculine and it's not pink (no offence to pink bike owners, but pink is just not for me)
I can't wait to head to Whistler bike park......wooooooo-hooooo!

Omgod! Why won't the pic load properly? I rotated the pic and downloaded it and it still loads upside down.

(Don't feel bad; the same thing happens to me often-especially pics I take with my camera phone.) Nice bike; and the flowers make a great backdrop.

Isn't it exciting when you pass up a deal and then find something even better?

Totally agree!
I didn't start out thinking I would buy bran new, but I just got so fed up looking on CL and Pink Bike. I noticed some ads selling bikes bought from big box store's listed at higher prices than original purchase price. You really need to do your research. Yes, I ended up spending more money buying bran new but I got exactly what I wanted and best of all the bike just feels right. It feels like my bike (if that makes sense) And if I have any issues with the new bike, the LBS are happy to deal with them. So yea, I'm pretty happy with my new addition.
