Michael, What a wide world of vintage cycling we live in... Thanks for the positive feedback...... I was curious about one of the bidders?? All parties have good Ebay feedback, it just appeared odd to me??
I had hoped that because of the "incorrectness" of the bike, it might stay within reason?? Which is always subjective..... For one, there is the odd frame anomaly....the location of the seat binder bolt??.... My '49 Bianchi has it in front of the seat tube.
It just seems to be a very high price for just a "PR" gear and a possibly correct frame and a bunch of odd parts?? IMHO.....
Cheers from Anaheim Hills, CA USA John Morrison, still looking for that "PR" bike, in a 56x56 cm size.....

The seller is also active in a german classic leightweights forum and promoted the bike there. I have not detected any suspicious activity in the sellers history, except that one seller bought two bikes. This might be to avoid selling to cheap, but generally I do not consider this as a problem. The seller has offered a lot of nice bikes recently and I guess the actual offer is not really overpriced. Even if he uses a second account to rais the bids, there still has to be one single other bidder who is willing to pay more but this is a general problem on ebay. The german forum does not report any neative feedback on this seller.

Hello Again, I wrote; Look into the bid history of the current high bidder?? I meant to say check out the high bidders, plural, one has high activity with the particular seller..... I'm not casting dispersions upon anyone.... C'ya, John Morrison, from Anaheim Hills, CA
