This is even odder than it looks at first sight. The 'seller' lindsey266 has several non bicycle items for sale. While the descriptions for them would not win a Pulitzer prize, they are reasonably literate. The cycle related advertisements appear to have been put in by another hand. If the Bates was recently finished as appears from the admittedly awful photographs, the Vegrandis transfers may have been purchased fairly recently. Might that give a clue as to the identity of whoever did the rebuilds on the two bikes? The 'seller's' email address seems to include his name... Dan Matthews of Leamington Spa. Known to anyone? Stuart Tallack in West Sussex
