A new Ultegra 8000 (!) groupset is currently being sold for <£600. The new (!) version of the frameset is being sold for £500. Handlebars are £100. Seatpost and saddle a bit above £100. The wheelset is <£200. Miscellaneous bits and bobs for ~£100. That adds up to £1600 new, and I'd say very generous at that. Where did you get the £1700 for a used bike with 'couple marks and chips' from? Or did I overlook something? Genuinely curious.
