Allez questions with pics

Does anyone know much about this Allez? : https://raleigh.craigslist.org/bik/417916180.html
It was posted on Craigslist an hour ago and I've already contacted the seller, but judging by the description and price, he may not know much about the bike.

Can anyone guess what the wheels or components are?

Thanks!

in the last pic it looks like the front fork may be bent...I would be wary.

The fork looks fine to me, I think it is just the angle of the photo.

I cannot tell you much about the group, but it might be Suntour, judging from the rear derailleur.

I can tell you that it is a great looking bike for $100 and that here in Toronto, it would go for $300, no problem. Grab it!

Nope, I didn't hesitate.. I sent the seller an email while his Allez remained on top of the list. However, now that 5 hours have passed without a reply, I don't believe I'll be picking up a sweet new ride this evening. Can anyone tell me the make of those wheels, though?

Is this, or is this not a Rensho made Allez?
