Seller is asking $325, listing has been up for one week. I'm 6'3" and rode a bike all the time as a kid, just never owned one as an adult. Here is the listing:
Excellent bike for the enthusiast, commuter or someone who just loves to ride! Rides smooth as silk with disc brakes and a full Sora setup. This is a highly coveted and RARE XXL frame (ideal height 5'9" or taller). I'm 6'1'' and its a perfect fit. Its ready to go! Tires aired up and ready to roll!
Please let me know about all things, thanks!

Offer him $250 and its a great deal
I mean the price is pretty right for it, but most of the components suck. I’d probably wait longer for something better, specially since when you’re getting to that 1k usd benchmark you start getting really good deals.
Tires have air. What are you waiting for!
Go check it, if it seems the right size haggle to what you are comfortable with. It’s not a bad bike, it’s mundane, entry level but ok and will probably last long.
Did they upgrade one hood and not the other, why don’t they match? “RARE XXL” means limited number of buyers, and seeing how low that saddle is tells me it doesn’t fit him very well. That listing is also incorrect, that frame is not for people 5’9”+, he is lying to cast a wider net. It’s made for people your height which is a tiny amount of the population.
I think $325 is a decent price and this is a very good starter bike, you will learn if you want to ride a lot (maybe upgrade in the future) or just have a bike when you randomly feel like riding. You could try $250 now or wait another 1-2 weeks and try $250 then, but at $325 I don’t think it’s bad.
