What should I pay?

[3wheelingLoco]

A guy I know has 2 200 Big Red trikes for sale. One is in good shape, starts and runs great (from what he says) and the other starts and runs great also, but needs a throttle cable and a set of front forks (they are bent). He is asking 1k for both, but siad he is very flexable. I don't want to try and make an offer the will insult him, but don't want to pay 1k either, what should I offer? They both have all the plastics, no tears in the seats, and seem to be in good shape. I will link a pic, but not sure if it will work.

$1000 is probably a steal, maybe try 900 or 950

show him $800 in cash money talks, dont tell him $800, get $800 and show it to him

Yeah, I agree that 1k is a good deal. Gather up what you can without 'breaking the bank'(ask me later about that :( )and let him know what you got. If anything, walk up to him with tattered clothes and puppy dog eyes and lay a huge sob story on him. :crazy:

Judging by the first pic, the farther one in the pic, looks to have been in a front end collision. The rack and fender and forks look farked.

Yeah i would offer $800 to $900.

man i thought 1k would be a wicked steal for those.

[87250es]

yeah i agree. $800-1000

[trikes4life]

800$ no more

Man $1000 is a deal for the two of them. I would offer him $700 all he can say is no.

I thought the exact same thing, I would pay 1300 myslef for them.
