Free Spirit Brittany

Found it on CL looking for the wife a bike. They're asking $80, new tires/tubes. What would be a reasonable price to pay?

At that price point and the fact this is a Free Spirit, IMHO you're better off spending a few more dollars to get something of similar weight and quality at your local big-box retailer since you'd at least have a warranty.
I can't believe I just said that about a "vintage" bike, but these have little resale value and the chance of something being wrong with it is fairly high. Look at how high the stem is - not a good sign IMHO.

Thanks... exactly what I wanted to hear. Glad I passed on it yesterday
