I thought these Schwinn anniversary Phantoms were supposed to be expensive bikes?

The repro Phantoms are not Asian made. The regular Anniversary Cruisers however are. The next one you see under $500 please notify me as rapidly as possible.

I recall these replica Phantoms initially were selling for around $3K with a limited edition made in U.S.
I bought the Deluxe U.S.model which was on display window for sometime.
I paid $600 to the local Schwinn store who was in the process of getting rid as much stock merchandise
before closing down for good.
The store also had the Phantom cruisers made in Taiwan which were selling for much less.
I also bought the Taiwan edition mostly because of the saddle which was very good material.
I ride this repro Deluxe bicycle on a daily basis.
After more then 10 years, despite all the wear and tear I’ve put into it, this bike has not broken down at all.
My original Phantoms are the most comfortable. This limited U.S.edition comes second but is
nevertheless a very nice ride as well.

That seller took a real big chance starting his auction way low and not having a reserve. Lost his shorts on that deal and someone made out and can easily double his investment. The lowest I've seen a 95 Phantom listed for was $850. And it was nice but it was a rider.
