here's one that fetched $86, but it still had the kickstand. you didn't mention that in your description.

i have a kickstand i could put on it... i didnt think anyone would actually want one of those...
so 80 or 90 maybe is fair?
i got a jerky email from a guy on craigslist saying it wasn't worth anything at all and i should stop wasting everyone's time. i thought it was rude.
i relisted it as 100$ obo...
that's on craigslist...
maybe i should list on ebay...
i've never shipped a bike though so that's the 1 thing holding me back on it..

I think so.
yeah. Some people don't have jobs or goals, aside from hassling posters on Craigslist. I tried to sell a bass guitar on there once and I think the same guy must have emailed me.

Evey person that puts a picture of their old school bike always has the seat post above the bars.

the bars pushed way forward? I dunno. I never got into that, mine were always in line with the forks/headtube - again, functional for barspins and whatnot.
