If it a Bianchi, I feel it may be slightly older than BG's estimate, solely on the basis of the apparent lack of a pump peg. However, I do agree it would be a mid-range model, probably with a Formula Two tubeset.
I was stumped on the lack of a peg too but I am not sure if that is a big feature on European bikes. I do hope the OP gets his money back.
