cambridge,
don't sweat it, the price was the issue here, which I'm sure you knew was unrealistic. It's hard to make money on bikes built specifically for sale especially if you use new bits. They can't compete with bikes that have been owned and ridden which tend to go a bit cheaper because the owner can factor in some depreciation.
You shouldn't care what I/anyone else say on this forum anyway. fixie riders were all bullied at school and harbour resentful feelings that manifest in the flaming of n00bs. You keep on and by the time you reach the average age of this forum you will be the fastest/build the most porn worthy rides etc.

in the meantime though, you have to admit that the price/description was going to attract attention and the bike looks a bit wanky.
