I picked up a 100% original 85 Mongoose M1 for $10 yesterday off of the neighbor kid. It's just filthy and needs to be cleaned. All white F/F/bars, goose grips, steel pro class wheels...the rear w/ Suntour coaster brakes and rear Lee Chi hand brakes. Original right down to the Comp III style Cheng shen tires...fat -n- skinny. First bike this cheap since about 2 years. Very very nice shape. Clean, regrease and drive. The head badge is almost mint w/ 2 small defects. To boot only one set of rear drop out marks !
Once it's cleaned I'll post pics. ROB

Congrats on the find!
With that said, I "hate" you and all others like you. I never find scores, just beat up overpriced stuff, or bikes that are in line with market demand price wise-read expensive.
