I've seen them higher in price.
Locking fork is the key point, which makes it a true Zep, as I understand it.

Id say that's priced to sell. Not a bargain but fair. People often don't step up for the higher priced bikes even when they are a value. Its a good reason to save your money and not nickle and dime yourself to the point of bankruptcy. Now if only I could take my own advice.

ok chris I am working on that,but!!!!!!!

Fair value, probably what I would ask.
There's not action because of where the price started.
Of course, the housepaint is holding it back, but the guard looks banged up and probably without good chrome underneath, and that's holding back potential bids to the end IMO.

Fair evaluations on that bike.......I will be selling mine soon. Period correct down to the locking fork/with key (working), instructions on "how to change a tire" and wrench in the tank. Also have an original tire with a white inner tube. Two speed, with shifter, which works perfectly........ Yes mine will be higher of course,but, these don't just fall out of the sky....Original paint/patina. Posted here before, but here it is again... As for the starting price on the above bike^ Probably not into knowing what's it's worth, and we all know that game........What someone will pay/what someone will take........

THe hawthorne zep in my opinion is rare in its own way. Yes it has house paint but its one of those bikes with original paint or restored there worth money. Hes got the lock with a key to it, brand new redone seat, drop stand is there and the headlights. Its a complete bike at a fair price for someone to figure out if they can try to save the original paint or restore it. The last 38 zep along with a girls zep on ebay sold in a day for over 5500 buxs i believe but they where original! I have a Zep and i love its great riding bike best of luck on your decision!
