Hey Joe:
Does that mean that you know this seller and can confirm that this auction is legitimate?
>From your message, you confirm that this bike exists but that leaves
questions about this auction, dubious bidders and amounts bidded that
are significantly higher than any previous...

All you guys with too much time.....
This tandem is for real. I checked it out
in front of the store one saturday. The real
deal. Looks like a bike that has been hanging in
a garage for 30 years. Frame lugs are crude handmade
looking. White paint is typical spray and pray Italian
paint from that era. Decals looked amazingly good
for their age. I never thought Poge decals were more
than average quality wise. The sled has minimal if any
miles on it. I sold several Poge road bikes in very early
80s and then they changed the decals with those horrid
glaring fork blade ones, then next I knew it was all sold
off to Rossin or some such butcher. I shoulda bought a
real one when they still existed new. Good old hind sight.
