    How much too offer!!

    There is a lady at my work that has this 85 200x that her dad gave her recently. She doesn't want to keep it and wanted to know if I wanted to buy it. Well I told her that I might be interested and would think about it and let her know Friday. She asked me too make her an offer. So here we are. How much to start off at and how high to go? Now the details, the bike was bought new in 85 by her dad. Has been garage kept. Has an excellent record of maintenance. I know the owner of the shop he had it serviced at. The motor is strong and sounds just as good.

    looks in real good shape. 400-500 is my suggestion although it's probably worth a little more.

    That's kind of what I was thinking. But should I make the first offer. Or should I ask her what she she wants then shoot her a price.

    Yeah! I don't want to insult her buy throwing a 400.00 offer and her thinking more. I'll ask her tommorow what she wants and go from there.

    Just so you are aware, the advice above is coming from the grand master of low-ball-jack-ass offers...

    I say offer low..but not low enough that when she tells people how much it sold for they dont tell her she got ripped....$350

    Seriously, why take advantage of her for not knowing what its worth.

    I agree with Yama, start around $400.
