This frame is Reynolds 531 Butted Tubes and has the double CC cutout in the bottom bracket.
The only Raleigh frame I've ever seen with
that CC cutout was one of the now infamous
Raleigh Record Ace bikes. Since this is
a repaint, is it not possible there is some
confusion over what it actually is?

'Course, that RRA that went for mucho dinero
on e-bay a while back might send this seller
off into outer space if that really is the case
and he figures it out.

I'm really starting to enjoy the watching more
than the buying. Guess that makes me an e-bay/
Craigslist voyeur.
