the mirraco bike are amazing, i ride the blackpearl 3.love it. but one thing is i wouldn't go any lower then the 3 for the bp or the blend because there out of date frames other wise.
the blend 1 has an american bb and not an internal headset.
blend 2 has a euro bb and a non internal head set.
blend 3 has mid b and an internal headset.
blend ltd same as the blend three but with after market parts.

same goes for the black pearl series.

but i guess if your just starting of then it will be a bike you could learn on and even start upgrading. so if you canget it cheap enough, then go for it.

i would say its unreasonable, i bought my bp 3 brand new for $660. but if you need a bike to start and start with then it might be a good bike fore you because your not really looking for the same frame features as an experienced rider. but when you do go to up grade, keep in mind that your headset isn't internal and that your bottom bracket is American. may be harder to find parts you want when upgrading, but it will do the job.

so its reasonable for a beginner but not an experience rider. but also try talking him/her down to $350.
