OK, I posted a link to an eBay auction, about 10 days ago, concerning a Schwinn Sports Tourer. Some knucklehead actually paid $415 USD for an old fillet brazed Sports Tourer.
Apparently there are a lot of Knuckleheads when it comes to old fillet brazed Schwinns. Check out this auction:

What is with these bikes? I understand that the fillet brazed Schwinns were nice bikes in their day, but they're no Paramounts. I'd never pay more than $100 for a bike like this. Does Al Queda have some kind of secret weapon that makes Americans pay stupid money for old garage sale bikes?
