A price that low is either a screaming deal or else betrays someone's knowledge of undisclosed damage. Not enough detail in the photos to be able to tell. Hope a deserving buyer gets this one.

I'm thinking there is a dent on the right side chain stay. Otherwise that price is effectively "free" for a tandem. The other stuff can be made right easily enough.

Personally, I think the T and Cs are MUCH more desirable for most people.

You see these for sale frequently...often almost unused, and frequently at prices you'd assume to be insanely low if you haven't bought/sold tandems. The one pictured is HIGHLY unlikely to sell for even half of asking price IMO. I passed on one at $400. Not quite as nice, but nice. Often you'll see them frame only ebcause the main value is the parts...they're frequent part out targets.

They have very little value as riders most of the time, and, IMO, these are among the worst. If you want a vintage Schwinn tandem...the t and c is a much better choice.
