The one and only "HOW MUCH IS MY xyz WORTH" thread

[Inigo Montoya]

Would anyone be kind enough to put a price on this frame for me. It's a Peugeot Grisley 19". Showing some signs of age, but a nice thing. It needs to go so if I can get a rough price i'll advertise on here, if not off to ebay it goes.

nice frame! never seen one of these. hence have no prices to base an estimation on... but why not give it a try at 200euros?
what year is it btw.?

don't think you'd make a fortune out of it. don't know too much about saracen though. there are some nice retro bits on there (chainset, thumbies, brake levers and fork) but nothing bling.

Might go down the ebay route with shipping to Germany and the word 'Kult' in the title then. Thanks very much for your help Inigo.

Certainly worth more in parts. Get the allen keys out and take some nice pics. Don't be disappointed if it all does'nt sell at once, you can always re-advertise.

ok piccies added,

Pace RC36 Proclass Eddie Irvine limited edition:

Middleburn red wheel set:

They are slightly faded, as is the way with red anno, however the pictures wash the colour out more than is actually the case. (also the hubs have been properly cleaned since the photos were done a few months back, just i cant get any new ones as they are in oxford and im in bournemouth at the mo)

i think its more essential to put the word "retro" in the title and post the link in the german for sale (which is legal by their rules). putting the shipping prices to germany in the listing will help too (30-40euros ?).
