The first sign of being a hipster is talking about hipsters, being worried about being a hipster and denying hipsterdom. I like vintage bikes, and I like other people into vintage bikes - skinny jeans or not. I dig both of your rides - my wife's DX-3000 is fantastic and I'm especially fond of Lotus.

You're into vintage bikes - and you bought smart, effective everyday use machines. You may be a hipster, but you're good with me. As far as price - I'd say you paid about the going rate for a solid Japanese bike in need of some TLC - actually about 25-50 under. You got a good project at a fair price that's going to make a great everyday rider. Are you and/or the wife going to get $100 of happiness from it? I'd bet the answer is yes. So...congrats and welcome!
