I don't see Max taking less than $8.5-9k for that bike, which it won't bid up to on Ebay. Most of the Craigslist bikes are in pretty rough shape and/or missing major pieces and would cost a fortune to turn into nice bikes. Truly, the only reason to have a '77 RS is for collector value, and if the bike isn't complete and in either nice original condition (nicely patina'd) or correctly restored then you're better off paying all the money and getting a bike like this one at Max, or another top-dollar bike. At least they're appreciating and if you overpay today for the best bike out there, eventually the market will catch up.
