    Doubtful. I wouldnt even want to spend that much for those if my neighbor had them. Just my opinion though.

    I think you need to listen to her. I definitely don't see $600 there. I personally would pass, but that's me.

    I agree with the wife. I offered the guy 50 bucks if he delivered. I think he is high on meth or something to ask 600 for this.

    I would pay $200 for them maybe a bit more. But that is just because I love the old honda minis. Even if they are in a sh!t state after a bit of work and some new motors I recon I could have them nice again.

    Haha if they were in my city I would pay that much. Thinking about it I would probably pay $400 if they were in my city or $200 if I had to drive to get them.
    And yeah I do have the mini sickness. I would say I'm nearly terminal.

    shit i would have thought 400 monkeys and dacs are through the roof the last time i check ebay then again i never hit "completed listings" either, if they really are only worth 100-200 probably wouldn't hurt to buy some project bikes in the near future.
