Ebay Colnago warning
I don't usually do this, but wanted to warn fellow listers about this restored Colnago frame on ebay:
https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=230598919225
The frame has an obvious (later) replacement fork, which the seller fails to disclose. I wrote to him (nicely) about this once before. I got no response. I just wrote him/her again, a bit less nicely this time. I just wanted to let the folks here know, since a) it's not an original frameset and b) a replacement fork is often a red flag regarding possible crash damage.

Well, the auction has under 3 hours to run and no bids yet. Maybe one cannot fool all the people all the time.
There is another orange super that has been on ebay for a long long time, it must have been renewed a few times, but like a real estate investor who bought at the top of the market and cannot face the current situation, it sits.
