I dunno, but trying to compare an early 80's Sidewinder to a late 80's Mesa Runner seems just plain crooked.

It is crooked. He's fraudulently representing a more common bike as a collectible one. Hopefully anybody looking for a Sidewinder will know better. Just like this seller does.

I inquired and got a response that lends to the fact that it is crooked. I responded by asking how a Sidewinder compares to the Mesa Runner they have pictured...crickets.

This is the nightmare: I would buy this in a SECOND! It is dirt cheap, and I have NEVER seen anything like this listed anywhere near me, and there's a Build Off in a few days.
Also, there is a border between me and it, which, due to restrictions, I am forbidden to cross for the next month.

There is so much strandie goodness on that bike! It’s actually kinda perfect the way it is too!

This bit is especially interesting:
"Commentary: The term "old school" sucks. I refuse to use it. It's nonsense and means something different to each person. "

Uhh, the dictionary would disagree.
"old school
/ōld sko͞ol/
noun
used, usually approvingly, to refer to someone or something that is old-fashioned or traditional.
'amenities that my parents, being of the old school, still take for granted'"
