As noted, Batavus is/was a Dutch firm that made pretty nice bikes. Sound like you paid a fair price for it, although I would be a bit concerned about any frame dings. Should be all British threading, so you should be able to exchange or upgrade parts easily. I am not sure if they are still around anymore-if so , perhaps still in Europe, but they have not exported to the U. S., as far as I know, for decades.
