At least they aren't super expensive to begin with.

It's hard to say. They're all kind of junk. This ad has been posted many times on CL, using the same or similar photos.

My father's wife collects many old, discarded junk bikes that she gets for free or next to nothing. Fortunately, she's able to sell them at garage sales or supplies them to people who can't afford to buy bikes to commute on. But if she got to the point where she collects them faster than she could get rid of them, I could see my dad's back yard looking like this.

Yeah, they're all junk bikes. I bet most were found trashed or just left and not stolen.

Now if it was this guy, I would care to wager at least one or two are hot:

I seen it before, I think there's people that go around police or city actions and resale them.

I was thinking the same about this one. Could it be a typo? A Nomad for $300?!!

It's gotta be a typo for $300. Probably $3,000.
Not even a thief would be dumb enough to sell that bike for $300. Also, if it were a thief, I doubt he would would have listed the component specs like that.
