84' db viper !! Good/bad buy

Not sure if anybody on here was bidding or even seen it on ebay it ended yesterday evening and I bid and won it ?
Looks quite rough and missing some original bits,odd tyres etc it's my second viper but I got my other over 20 odd years ago so this is my first recent purchase and just wanted to ask if I paid over the odds or is this the right ball park
I don't know how to add a link to the advert but I basically got it for £195 ,I suppose I'm just a bit ignorant to values etc
All new to me I'm afraid at the moment and just wanted some advice off the lads that know

just add the ebay item number here so we can have a look
..but on the recent purchases you see that there were 2 '84 f+f sets sold for like 90 and 130 posted to UK from the US.
edit: .ops the one for 90 seems to be smth else...

No probs the item no. 191058671305
Cheers and I'm guessing its a 84' by the decals being slightly different too so I may be wrong

Don't be in a rush to bin those bars though buddy. Make sure they are not Diamond Back stamped first

I have a set of stamped DB bars off an '84 survivor I found. Wrong bars for the bike so they're up for grabs if you need a set
