well first off if you just snagged it from CL then the value is what you paid for it right? I mean if you paid $200 for it but would have passes at $225 or $250 then $200 is the going rate in your area.
I ma not familiar with the Nishiki International but the '88 Limited (actually I have to check I think a Celeste on would be '89) is a performance or race level bike. we sold lots to new racers upgrading and to Triathletes. what imparticular don't you care for? is the reach to the bars longer than you were used to? position of the shifters?
