1984 Stump Jumper - very good condition
appreciate thoughts about what my '84 Stump Jumper is worth. I live in the Ca. Bay Area/East Bay and would love to sell it here. Thanks for your advice.

Welcome to the BikeForums Classic & Vintage - Valuations subforum.
This forum was created due to the increasing number of threads asking about the value of a bicycle from both new and old members of the forum. While the C&V community is always here to help answer questions, and give our opinions on the quality of a bicycle is, the number and frequency of these threads had reached a problematic point. Thus, the decision was made to give these types of threads their own subforum where they can be read and replied to by those who wish to give honest, meaningful responses to the inqury.
The moderators do ask that those who are posting new threads and those responding to them please follow these Guidelines.
When Posting a "What is this X worth" thread:
2) Please supply as much information as you can, and pictures are most helpful, this includes a meaningful and descriptive title. The more information you can provide about the item you are asking about the value of the better we can answer the question. If you do not know much about the item you are asking about, again, photos are most helpful. Many of us can at least get a rough idea of the quality of a frame even after a repaint, from a good photo or two.
3) Realize that the monetary value of a bicycle can very greatly depending on the market. If the bicycle is for sale locally, it's location alone can influence its cost wildly. What one member may be able to buy for locally $50 may be untouchable for another somewhere else for $300. Keep this in mind when reading responses to your inquiry.
4) Because local prices can very so much, it is always a good idea to do a search on eBay for completed listings for similar items and see what they sold for.

1984 Stumpjumper
Pictures will definitely help with assigning a value here. It is a relatively small market for vintage mountain bikes, although yours is one of the iconic ones! I bought a pristine '84 Stumpjumper Sport ( one step below your model) for $200 this weekend in the Bay Area. Yours might sell for $350-450, depending on size and condition? Good luck!
