Well, CRers, the marketplace has spoken as these 2 auctions ended over the past few days. In an unusual sort of auction, the final bid amount on the Eisentraut was reached in the first day or so of a 10 day auction. This was a truly remarkably crafted frame expertly refinished by none other than Joe Bell. The second auction was for an early Colnago with not nearly the artistically expressed lug edges etc. and a thick powder coat to boot. (Does it sound like I am biased?) What I don't get is that the final winning bids on the bikes ended right at only $200 apart with the Eisentraut on top.
Any thoughts or comments?
