Oh i meant 600 gbp its a common mistake i do since a gbp is about 10 swedish kroner (actually its a lot more but i use 10 cause once upon a time that worked for conversion)
Frame fork bought on here for something like 280 gbp shipped or similar.
That left me 320 for group and wheels bars and stem.
Try finding a working condition chorus 9 speed group with chorus hubs wheels for 300. Its not that easy.. and then you still have bars stem tires n saddle left with 20 budget (luckily I'm a hoarder so i had some stuff around).
Regarding pricing in general: If you come across something its not that hard to find a deal if you are just looking for a nice bike. However if you are searching for something specific you will find its not so easy to find a deal on that item at the point in time when you want it. That kinda sux but its true :)
