Title: How much does a firebird freestyler go for?
Post by: SaMAlex on February 25, 2008, 07:19 PM
I just got a text from a mate saying he'd like to get a firebird freestyler. I have no idea what they go for. Can someone give me a guide price for a nice one and one that needs work, just to I can fill him in a bit.

Also, if anyone has one to sell ......

it depends day to day tho matey.

Thats great, thanks guys.

That might be enough to put him off. I get the feeling he is thinking more like £40.

If not, I will be back with his £200, posting up in the 'wanted' section.

I think that the firebird is a very undervalued bike, there was nt a great a mount made, and i heard , dont know if its true , that when dp folded or ceased trading all of there stock was crushed and skipped, so there wont be any nos ones out there, so for a good en im suprised that they dont fetch a hell of a lot more, nice looking bike too

I've been watching these everyday on ebay for the last 3-4 months, maybe longer.  You probably see one a month and the prices have been slowly going up depending on spec and condition.  I was waiting for a cheap one (under £100) but they just aren't there, so I bit the bullet and got the last one that came up - £185+ postage.  I'd give it 6/10 for spec and condition!!!!! :daumenhoch:
