Is there something special about the model 57? At about the same time, a nother alloy-railed Ideale went for a bit more than $200 on eBay, only abou t one tenth the price of this one. Is the model 57 older/rarer than othe r alloy railed Ideales, or did the buyer just have a need for this particul ar model?

Come to think of it, this is the second Ideale 57 saddle that Leopin2 has purchased on eBay within the past 6 months. I have two such saddles and both are outperforming my stocks.
