1983 BMX Mongoose Value

[Nivec]

I have a BMX from the 80's, the tires and brakes are obviously shot, frame corroded and turning parts don't turn so well.

I am leaving SA and need to get rid of some stuff, that unfortunately includes my first bike. I believe some of these old BMX's are quite sort after. Does anyone know if this is one and a fair price to ask for it?

guess the ebay value will be much higher that what you will get locally 

It really deserves the right home to be appreciated

True. I have an 80's Mongoose Supergoose which is worth a fortune to the right buyer in the right location. Even breaking up and selling the nice parts is worth something. 

There is a Facebook group with a couple of local guys that collect vintage BMXs, and a couple of other groups that might be able to help you get the value. 

Edit: when/if you have a ballpark figure, I need some parts to rebuild mine, so shoot me a DM.

Sent to a mate who's a collector, he reckons about 10k and it'll move fast... 

 

He's passed out on to a group or two so you may get a dm or two in the next few days.

Thanks everyone. R10k is what I was offered a few years back through a friend of a freind, did not know if it was a serious offer, but was planning to keep it so never followed up.

Good to know what it is worth, now I just have to face letting it go.
