A REAL GENUINE, "Paramount built", Sting sold today for $511 Dollars. It appeared that it had Profile cranks on it too.
A "Chicago Built" Sting Comp. just sold for, ~~gulp~~ $861.99....... with one piece cranks, rat trap pedals and thruster bars.
Unreal......Clearly a $275 dollar bike. I know the seller is here at VBMX. Talk about gift horse! You got to love ignorant bidders. Stunned.
Maybe it was the "Screw it to the wall" restaraunt people getting their payback!?

Not surprising at all, considering that the $511 auction had just 3 crappy photos and an 18-word description, and the $861 auction had a novice bidder.

a sting comp in my book is not clearly a $275 bike anyway, I bought one for $80 recently. it needs restored but what the heck.
