Title: What Would You Pay??
Post by: poppers on October 25, 2006, 10:37 AM: Restored 1st Gen Master F&F. I know it's worth whatever a buyers prepared to pay. But what's a realistic ball park figure?

You probably won't find a 1st gen master to compare to, let alone a restored one.

What do you mean by 1st gen master? to me a 1st gen master is a torker made '84 with the coaster tab under the chainstays. Is that the one you're talking about?

Post by: Jazzchimp on October 25, 2006, 02:09 PM: I know what I paid and it was a lot, but mine's mint, straight and restored with lush new deep chrome... as minty mint as they come :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:

But I think realistically you'd be looking at £400-£500 for an ok unrestored but will polish up quite nice version

No, i always thought that's a 2nd Gen Master. I'm talking about the 82 Master.

If I really wanted one, I'd probably pay £500 for a mint restored f&f, but some might not pay that much - others may pay more :-\
