Ireland is more expensive but not so much when it comes to something entry level like a 1.2. The point is somewhat moot as you can't buy Trek online or mail order, only from a shop. It would not be worth buying a 1.2 in person in the US IMO (could be for the higher-end bikes and I know people who have.)

Ah, cool alright thanks. I was just curious because I had seen it cheaper somewhere Trek related online.
Would you say the shops would be up for some haggling, considering I'm just starting out and that?
