Wow. WTF.


Ya know, I get that some of these old Honda atc parts are getting harder and harder to find, but that is complete nonsense. So, if just the tank is 2-4K on this particular bike, by rough calculations....if you just happened to have a minty fresh atc70, is gonna be worth about....40K, if you were to price every precious part out by this guys standard.

I can't wait until my Big Red is worth 100K. Woopty doo!!! I think I will stop working and just go around the country picking Honda ATC parts and be retired and traveling the USA lol.

Yeah, that is just sad, to say the least! Whoever that is, needs to be slapped!! :crazy:

[King Trikester]

Yes agreed. If you happened to have a 100% N.O.S/ complete atc 70 i could see it being worth 5k. I'm talking 100% unmolested in The original crate never being touch or having fuel Put in it.

What would be more rediculouse is if someone bought it. Im sure You could have a very skilled metal worker build a replica for less than his price.

[ScreaminRed]

No one should buy it. If someone does, its ups the prices on everything else. Its a door that doesn't need to be opened.

It's a free country. Don't take that the wrong way. That being said it never hurts to fish and see what someone will give.
However the problem I have been having lately is when I call about a particular trike and the seller says well they are going for xxxxx on eBay.
NO they are not GOING for that on eBay you (insert your favorite word for idiot here), they are not getting bids. Some one simply listed it at that price. Just because there is an average 1985 250r listed for $3500 doesn't mean the one they have is worth that. It's just a very high price that will not get any bids. :crazy:

[ScreaminRed]

Yes it is a free country. Does anyone think about being a basic human and not being so friggin' greedy? Just like you said, some of the ebayers are waaay to high. "If someone does, its ups the prices on everything else. Its a door that doesn't need to be opened". It all starts with greed.

he'll keep it posted and some day, some dumb rich guy will see it and think "wow, thats sooo cool, it will look awesome on the wall in my man cave my wife let me make" and buy it... and this dude will laugh all the way to the bank! I hate him already! lol
