I’m shopping for a vintage steel bike for myself and I came across this beautiful 80s Fuji America bike in my size for $150. The components are functional per the seller and look fine in the photos – I’ll obviously confirm before I buy. The only major flaw is a small dent on the seat tube (pictured) and some spotty rusting. I can live with the rust, since it’s steel after all, but should this dent in this location be a dealbreaker? The photo also represents the worst of the rusting and paint condition.
Thanks!

its fine but it might stop the seat post being lowered all the way. and its cheap a mint one would be more probably
If it were my bike that dent wouldn’t stop me from riding it. I wouldn’t buy a bike with a dent like that though. You can do better for 150
