I know about the Trek
> 520, and see these on eBay from time to time

I'd be wary of buying a frame sight unseen. Over the years I've had
far too many customers bring in a frame they just bought, all happy
and excited because it's a "frame they've always wanted" or "it was
such a great deal", etc. And then on close inspection I find that the
bike was crashed and the fork is bent or the head tube is more
vertical than it should be since the top and down tubes are bent right
behind the head tube from running into something. Some people sell a
bike because they can't get rid of a mysterious creaking sound. They
sell it piecemeal and the frame buyer then discovers the crack at the
BB shell that was causing the sound.

Be careful.
