Appears to be an early eighties bike with some other Campy group - Triomphe perhaps? The chainrings have those triangular cutouts. It looks to have a parallelogram rear derailleur and the brake levers appear to be non-aero Campagnolo. But the shifters have that early eighties aero top-mounting.
Notice that steepish seat tube. Oh boy... My size, but not for me.
This is the second time this bike has been listed. Look at the seller's ID: he's has changed his ID lately and has no feedback history. And he obviously doesn't know what he has. The last time the bike was out, I contacted the seller (no pics then). I blew the note away, but as I recall the reserve was in the upper three hundred dollar range. It might be worth that much, but someone winning this auction as described might be disappointed.
