Thanks to everyone who replied. With the dollar losing so much ground against the Euro in the last year, I was thinking it may be cheaper to buy Colnago's somewhere in Asia, namely Thailand. For now, the dollar appears to be making a comeback so I hope by the time I reach Europe, it appreciates substantially. Just out of curiosity, has anyone noticed the price of Colnago's being marked up in the US over the last year to account for the US dollars depreciation against the Euro?
