I suspect that's one of the bikes made after Harry sold the rights to the name. If the frame number doesn't have a Q prefix, it's not a real HQ. He later bought back the rights and made more Q numbered frames.

So is that priced right and if it is what would a real Harry Quin fetch.

In my opinion it's over priced , never seen a Q ladies bike but I would expect it to be worth more .

Javelin was usually aimed at catalogues

But could be shop bought, a sort of cheaper competitor to the Raleigh Arena. Yep, 70'_80's. If it has cable clips then more 70's

Now thats better value than this one on gumtree, https://www.gumtree.com/p/bicycles/vintage-bsa-javelin-racing-bike/1328863758
Only £12,345, seller seems to think its a great buy as it needs tyres and a bit of a clean up?

Down are neck of the woods £12345 means there's not a set price but you make them an offer.

Agree but in this case the seller has put on his advert ( I've seen one restored for £1,350 (see photos) ) so i think he must be expecting a lot more than the real value of the bike? dont know about any one else but i will not be making an offer.

Strange how he thinks its worth almost ten times as much as a restored one!
Completely new one on me: Mason Lightweight Cycles ? Nice 21 1/2" lugless 1960s frameset with 70's parts. £15 start pick from Chorley.
Another £15 start: 24" late '80s Geoffrey Butler in Dorking.
