I'm bidding on this bike on our local "Craigslist". Seems to be in good shape.
What would be an okay price to pay?

Nice looking bike. I hate assigning value. It's worth as much as your willing to pay.

 

[Easy Skywalker]

I guess you're right... I'll see what happens price-wise

That bike looks to be in good shape and you could probably find one for anywhere between 50 and 200 dollars(or more) in this country.

On a simular subject, do you think these dutch bikes worth 1000 dollars?

if i really wanted it, id stop myself at $160, but thats me looks to be a real clean bike !!

 

[Easy Skywalker]

Thanks guys. I was thinking perhaps going up to $120 tops... (I just don't want to spend more, but I can imagine someone would).

I'd say...no! If it's the model you like then you can get these frames for free/cheap. Perhaps these guys are doing a very good quality bike with super details, but then it would still be expensive for half that price. (And it's excl. shipping!!! That'll be steep!!)
But if you like these bikes I'd say you'd rather have the real thing and get an oldie for $100.

it is very nice and original looking which is a good thing. trouble is it is a women's bike and from a collector's prospective is kinda ho hum unless you plan to get it for your lady to cruise. in which case it is a good deal for 120 but i personally would not go much higher. if it were a men's frame it would be going for double that.

seen 1 at the fleamarket for 125.. Is that a deal?

We picked one up at a local estate auction for $30 + 10%buyer premium + 7%tax.
Ares in ladies but aslightly darker blue and in the same conditions.

I see what you mean, Karfer, I would eventually give it away yes...
Sounds like a nice deal, Dumpster Diver!
