That’s an extremely good price!

I’d have snapped that up if it was smaller to sit next to my DB

Ok I'll put it on at 350 then later I forsale.Seems cheap.

I'd say it's a price that will mean someone from retrobike actually buys it. I assume a new buyer will strip it down completely, maybe have it repainted and then build it back up with their chosen parts. The price allows that to happen. There are some Roberts bikes on ebay that simply won't sell because they are priced very high. £950 for a Rough stuff tourer - no thanks. £2500 for a Dogs Bolx - no chance, £999 for a white spider with campagnolo kit? Slightly more tempting because of the campagnolo but still - no thanks.

After confirmation I'm not sure it's a Roberts because of the wishbone at the back and can't confirm serial number .Roberts did have 5 didgets numbers and they did build frames to customers spec but can't confirm this is genuine.
Sorry but I'm still learning about these bikes.

I think it could be a trekzx7000 of the period.
This reduced price to 200 ono
