Hi, I've been biking for a while now but I really need an upgrade on my bike. I've been in the hunt for a Road-comp but I've been riding on a ancient Centurion Lemans RS so I really need some help determining if this is a good deal or not.
This is the Craigslist post:

I'm selling my Specialized Allez Comp Road Bike. It is a size 56cm. While it measures 52cm from bottom bracket to top of tube, it is a compact frame and is actually sized by Specialized as a 56cm bike. It is in excellent condition. It is full SHIMANO ULTEGRA (brakes, shifters, gears, derailleurs, crankset), which is an upgrade from 105 and Tiagra. Comes with Carbon Easton tires. Carbon fork, Carbon seat post, and a cable that displays what gear you're in (see pictures). Brand NEW seat, brand NEW bottom bracket and brand NEW chain. Bought a new bike and want to find this a good home. Asking $550 or best offer. Please no low ball offers. This bike is perfect and ready to ride. No pedals are included.

I'm wondering if this is a decent entry level bike for $550 or if I should continue looking.
The bike is Red/White Paint in looks to be in very good condition. He's dropped the price twice since i've checked from 750 --> 650 --> 550, so i'm not sure if it's a bad bike or he's just desperate to get rid of it and i'll get a steal on this.
I'm trying to grab a road-comp for $1,000 or less btw.
I'm 17 years old
Male
6ft-ish
31-ish inseam
