Selle Italia Turbo Re-Issue! Part Deux

November's here and it's time to batten down the hatches and get ready for cold weather - or at least what Californians call cold weather. So I'm on Nashbar's site to look for some cold-weather clothing and figure I may as well look for some other stuff I need that are marked down. (On a side note, how many of you, valued blog readers, had your credit card number stolen while shopping at the Nashbar site this past year?)
Anyway, I'm browsing through the site, adding the usual impulse buys to my cart - tubes, patch kits, ball bearings, and I come across the Selle Italia Turbo re-issue for $49.99! Your choice of colors, as long as it's black. Well, it can't hurt to have a spare on of these around, even if it's synthetic leather.
It should be arriving on Saturday so I'll get some pictures posted and let y'all know what I think. Get yours while you can - the website indicates they're running low on inventory, and oh yeah, use a credit card you won't mind canceling in case they haven't fixed all their security holes yet.

UPDATE: 11/06/2009
Well folks, hope you jumped on your chance to get one of the Turbos at Nashbar cuz they're all gone now.
I checked the site this morning and it's no longer listed. No telling when or if they'll be back. A couple of the other online shops have been perpetually out of stock since this summer.
