The price would be fine maybe a bit low if it was ready to ride with good rubber and everything worked good. But considering it likely needs a full overhaul and at least new tires and pedals components wise basically $150-200 on a bike like this if there are no surpises. I would say $300 or so would be a fair price in the current weak market.

This looks like a '96ish bike. I was the bottom line Italian bike, built with Dedacca tubing and Campagagranola Stratus group. These came stock w/ DT 8spd shifter and Ergo was an option.
I agree since it needs some work and parts closer to 300 may be better.
