You must be new to Ebay.

You can actually list anything you want there, for any price, at any time.

I think there's a new internet website called Amazon where you can do the same thing.

The closest thing I could find to my old Specialized was listed for $3,700. The bike is over 30 years old and wasn't worth shit last I checked.

Furthermore after doing the conversions I see that the bike in the OP is small for its era, which adds a lot of value.

If there's little supply, people will jack prices to the moon.

Best option is to know the FMV of what you want, and wait for an agreeable transaction.

Yes but eBay supply used to yuge. It's totally gone now. Parts supply is the same but fully assembled bikes are down 99%

You have to be patient. Old stuff comes to market when it comes to market.

Not many people selling bikes at the beginning of winter, either.
