Buyer beware! Certainly not a schwinn. The frame is not like a schwinn. And Schwinns never had a front chainring with lettering. Their seat alway said Schwinn. It probably "is" pre-war but it most likely was "in" the war. And girl's bikes are worth a fraction of the value of a boy's bike. Why? There are a lot of them out there because girl's never rode them. Girl's played with dolls. It's probably worth about $50. Thanks for sharing. Still fun to look at.
They probably have it priced so high because they paid a lot for it thinking it was worth even more. He is probably trying to make a quick buck or is generally delusional about the true value. It is definitely a girl's bike, has the slanted top tube so that the rider could wear a skirt. Unfortunately, women's bikes just don't carry any value.

ReplyDelete@Strambley: Wow, thanks for the insight! Why do you think they have it priced so high? If it were a Schwinn, would it be worth that much?
