Cannondale Fair Price?
This looks just like my old cannondale, which I wish I kept. Heck it might be the same one, he's says he got it used at about the time I sold mine. How many can there be in my town?

What's a fair price for this? I seems good working condition, fair visual condition (lots of scratched paint) and probably lots of miles.

Well, at the local MegloBike Mart that has a small "used" bike section, you're gonna dish out $400 for it at the very least. The average CL Cannondale of similar ilk seems to follow that price range as well in my area.
I would take cash and offer the lowest offer you can keep a straight face with. Ya never know.

Without having brifters that price seems fair to me.

There was a 3.0 that needed heavy clean up, lube, etc. and had the wrong bars, that sold for $100 in Raleigh, but it was sold in a few hours. Another 3.0 went up for over $200 (can't remember the exact price), it took a while but it sold (no repeat listing).
IMHO, I'd see if he will take a little less, depends on how clean the bike is, does it need repairs, tires, etc and how bad you want it. That price is what I would call the top end for that bike in your area.

Here in the Philadelphia market, that bike would fetch $250.00 to $300.00 if it was in ready to ride condition and didn't need any new parts or tuning. (And the paint was good.)
Cannondales are hot in Philly right now.

I bought a 85 SR300 in excellent shape other than needing a tune up, frame paint is beautiful, I paid 250 the guy was asking 275. Which in the craigslist market is fair.
