Has anyone noticed the extreme differences in selling prices for used Drifters?

I have seen a beautiful 1500 with custom paint, hand shifter, extra seats, custom pipes, etc.. with the original stuff to go along with it too for $3200.00 and then I see others with high miles and very little extra done to them selling for $6, and $7,000.00.

There seems to be no consitency at all with these bikes.

In the northeast I can find bikes from $2800.00 for a 99 stock with 80k miles to $5800.00 for one with 15k miles on it.

In cali they seem to jump around all over the place but some of the most expensive used drifters I have seen recently were from Cali.
Even some 800's selling for over $6000.00.

While shopping around I marked and watched several drifters, well every one I could find, and the one thing I noticed is the miles and condition of the bike seem to have little to do with it's selling price.
There was a 99 all stock missing a headlight for $4400.00 while a much cleaner bike with extras to go along with it sold for under $3k.

I just thought it an odd observation.

It's not like you can say, well a 2003 1500 with 10k miles on it mostly stock in mint condition should sell for XYZ and then expect to find 4 or more for that price.

Anyone else notice this
