Justamy Not necessarily. While I've had to haul home a couple of bikes I didn't want to get one I did, I've seen a few facebook marketplace ads where if the seller was patient, they could sell them individually. IMHO, a flipper would not offer you for the lot what they would sell for individually so if you are not in a hurry to free up space, you can take your time.

I don't know about SE Missouri, but if you were in SW Missouri around Joplin I'd think you could ask $125 for a few of them individually and wind up getting $75. And then there are middle of the road types like me that would possibly bundle a couple of bikes. For example, if I didn't have a bunch of projects in my garage already, I'd like the Nishiki mixte and maybe the Gitane. There may be a couple of them you almost can't give away. It will all come down to if you want to make a quick buck or take your time.
