Came across a BikeE FX with 50 miles on it. Computer and RANS seat installed by the dealer. Last one ever sold here. He wants $600. It is mint with all the paper - but I find original price nor can I find going value. Comments?

This is just my opinion: I would offer $300 at best.
"Mint" condition (as well as the original selling price) doesn't mean a whole lot when the brand is not really very collectible, and some parts are nearly impossible to get now (http://www.bicycleman.com/recumbents/bike_e/bike_e.htm).
{ Just FYI: BikeE's originally sold for $900 to $1300 or so, as I remember **
For $700 you could get a brand-new Sun EZ-1 that doesn't rely on a combination (internal + external gear hub) rear hub, and that has a full warranty.
