$355 for a carbon swingarm?

eBay: K2 Proflex Carbon swingarm, and Noleen Smart Shock (item 170054673126 end time Dec-06-06 14:18:44 PST)

Well somebody wanted that carbon swingarm really bad. The frame is cracked at the headtube, and the shock is short lived.

The frame can be welded, but $355? (Oh, wait. It does have that much sought after hanger.)

I saw that too and fell out of my chair when I saw the final bid.  Hmm, I have a 5000 frame without a crack and NR-4.  Maybe the winning bidder would buy mine for $1000  It is even modified for disc.

No, I bought a couple of spares from Irony Horse last year for $11 each. Price since has gone up.
