"If you don't get it, you don't get it."
I guess I don't get it. I like how both the brake's quick releases are open though.

Actually it's not in bad shape, put a set of bars on it probably sell, hard to find that tall of bike used in decent condition.

I think part of that is optical illusion, that really handlebar makes it look a lot weirder than it is. I'd ride it

This Motobecane is probably not a terrible deal at $200, but is the seatpost reversed?

Pricewise I see bikes like that in Toronto get sold for that kind of price often, at least they are advertised at that price and go quickly.
I spotted an ad for a $100 Bianchi parts bike and it was gone in 10 minutes. A $200 Bianchi that was ridable went almost as fast. People are agreeing to buy sight unseen.

Vintage Univega road bike Frameset + extras Great fixie project
"58cm Univega road bike.
Comes with 700c wheels and all extras shown.
Forged dropouts
Stuck seat post."
Stuck seat post? looks like someone broke off a tap in the poor old 'vega, how did the rider not realize at some point that the post wasn't fitting?? take notes gents, if you have to hammer it in... don't. might be able to bend the clamp back into shape but would you ever trust the brazing on those seat stays after so much flexing? at $30 I'm half tempted to find out
