The "How much?" or "You're havin' a giraffe!" thread

Another Fake WWII bike, this time spotted in person at Lytham 1940s weekend. It's a 1970s Raleigh Superbe with a bit of black paint covering up the chrome. I particularly like that there was no attempt to remove the 70s decals or pletcher rack.

He wants £350. I bought a real 1940s Raleigh Superbe a few months ago for £47.50.

It would make sense if that was fee to take them to the dump

£312 for what appears to be a load of old, rusty bikes and parts seems a tad excessive to me: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/226939630174

But they are now a pule of old rusty bikes and bits

they are VINTAGE rusty bikes and parts

which triples the price
or the optimism anyway

Anybody want a Philips lightweight tourer for £234? It's had the mudguards and saddle cover removed to save even more weight!

As usual the decimal point is in the wrong place

Think I saw this one a while back, and surprisingly still available

Mind you, having slammed into the back of a truck don't help.

But @FrankCrank - that's peanuts compared to the asking price for this one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/306549617605

Yerbut, it is a MK1 for serious investors.😂

They sure are odd looking them mk1's.
Guess they weren't fully jigged up yet at the workshop, so to do the main tube they put the pipe in a vice and walloped it to get a bend
