FIAFD, I actually looked at that saddle too (the DC one) and I really liked it....but that's WAY out of my price range right now. I don't really need a saddle yet, but it was one of those "well maybe if this is a deal it would be worth it" types of things. But you're right...buying a saddle without being able to see it and try it out first hand is probably not a good idea.
