I'd suggest a different route: that's a fine bike with perfectly fine Campy gear on it, and a size that would attract the attention of women who don't often see vintage bikes like this in a small size.
I see it has a Ciocc chrome fork, is that original to the frame? (if so it offers a clue as to who was building Ciocc back in the day, but that's another thread)
I'd say keep it intact and take the clear pictures and write the concise description (as suggested) but post it on your most local Craigslist. Craigslist is free and the work (and $) involved to clean, advertise and sell just one item (bike) compared to many items (parted-out bike) and sold on eBay is simple math.
I can't imagine it selling in any location for less than 3 times what you paid for it, but location is very crucial for this. (in MY locale it would easily go for 6X your cost...easy)
As for a date: it could be mid '80s, but seems like late '80s to me...the Campy parts probably have a date code that should help nail it.
