I was just offered half of what I'm asking. That buyer is still waiting for a reply, and will continue to wait for a reply, long after another buyer has ponied up with my asking price.

woah guys, he's added his expected cost 3 hours after i made the offer. i'm not going to waste MY time lowballing him THAT much.
Edit: I should say no dollar amount was on it at the time i made my offer, and i don't have a clue what it's "actually" worth.

The seller has tagged pics, emailed me them when I asked. Wish I had expendable cash flow.

Someone buy this Crescent before I am tempted to drive to Delaware. $125, two sets of wheels. I imagine a clincher/tubular combo.

Sold my Klein Quantum on Craigslist for $400. It was too long in the top tube for me. And people think Cannondale invented the aluminum bike!
My Mercian King is a sweet ride for my old rear end!

Vintage NOS built-up bicycle wheels and brakes - $175 (Peoria, IL)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These items are a blast from the past, bought in 1979 when I had visions of building my own custom touring bike. First is a set of Suntour Superbe caliper brakes, a beautiful copy of Campagnolo Nuovo Records. The polishing and finishing on these brakes, which are complete and still in their original box, are jewel-like and simply a work of art. Second is a set of custom wheels designed for touring. These consist of Weinmann concave rims (with Presta valve holes), 14 gauge straight spokes with 4X lacing, and Campagnolo Nuovo Record large flange hubs. The rims are sized for 27x1 and 1/8" tires (tires with tubes are on the wheels now, but appear to be dry-rotted). A custom 5 gear rear sprocket is on the rear hub, calculated for perfect gear spacing when used with a 42/52 front sprocket set-up. These parts have never been used, and aside from a little dust, are as new.

That sort of thing requires a provenance.
Anyone can yank a bike out of a dumpster and claim it belonged to Howard Hughes' great aunt's second cousin twice removed, means squat without proof

What do you guys think this bike is worth? https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWA:IT&ih=006
The guy wants $275 to end the auction, and I can pick up.
