1969 Schwinn Racer Great Condition
What would a reasonable selling price be for a 1969 Schwinn Racer, this bike is in great condition, no rust and mechanically everything works perfectly.

I see it has a flat, are the tires and tubes old?

The two flats will submarine the sale ad if you state "mechanically everything works perfectly". I love buying bikes with flat tires as it can eliminate the competition and knock off about $100 on the price, if not more. Novice buyers are scared of flats, and assume repair will be very costly.

This was a stock photo the actual bike has proper tires/tubes holding air, and the decal on the downtube looks cleaner than that of this photo as well. So in a good market $150-$200 would be a fair retail value?
