It's not my ideal paint job. Given my druthers, I'd prefer a celeste Bianchi or a racing green Mercian. Or simmering with gorgeous Nervex lugs. But the "New Old Stock" had a bit of allure
I guess I'll be patient.

It will all come down to how much you really like this particular frameset (aside from the lug details and chrome, does the color and graphics look attractive to you, and how it fits you).....
Heck I paid for more than that for a Vitus 983 framed bike without wheels, not too long ago, because I just really always liked the bike since I first saw them in the 80's and it was the exact correct size for me, plus I doubt if I'll find the same bike again in the same condition that easily....
