I am going to see it today – it looks well used but doesn't seem abused. He is original owner and from talking to him knows a lot about bicycles.
Retails at $1999, asking $1000, I can likely get it for $800.

Says the paint scrapes are near the back are from his shows, the derailer is scratched from being put in and out of trunk, and the decals being scrape a litte are same reason.
I don't know enough about bikes to know if it's true- it seems true to me though. I don't see any dents. I'll examine in person and test ride it to be sure.
Any help would be, um, helpful and appreciated.

I don’t see anything to be concerned about. If he was putting it in and out of his trunk and bumping the derailleur it probably needs to be tuned but most used bikes will need that. $800 would be a great deal. The fork is decent for an entry level bike and the four pistons brakes are a great to have.
