Specialized S-Works Enduro FSR Carbon

This is a 17.5" (Medium) 2012 Specialized S-Works Enduro FSR Carbon; consider this the crem-de-la-creme of bikes.  It's loaded.  Super-light, super-fast, and super....loaded.  HOWEVER, and READ CLOSELY -- there's a dent/nick on the carbon on the side of the down-tube near the head-tube.  This occurred when the bike fell on a hitch -- not even in 'action'.  It happened in 2013; the bike has been ridden for 2+ years since and has never had an issue.  I've ridden it the past 3-months.  Two different Specialized dealers locally checked it out and gave it the 'test'; it is a bit soft, but it's not cracked or through the carbon itself.  If you know anything about carbon, you know that it's stupid-strong.  If you know anything about (where) this is on the frame, you'll know this is probably the last place on the frame that ever sees/feels pressure.  That's why this is exactly where you can drill a hole into the carbon and route an internal dropper-post.  Or, simply patch it with a patch and paint over it.  Whatever. 

So, with that fact being disclosed, the price is so stupid-low.  Check out this link for the BlueBook value: http://www.bicyclebluebook.com/searchlistingdetail.aspx?id=3040875

Notice that this is priced LOWER than the 'fair' condition, which is a very fair assessment.
