I'm not calling the seller a liar, as it certainly looks NOS, and every little thing is exactly right, but how in the heck does this happen?
Easy....the owner of shop 'put it away' and died or sold the shop or whatever. The owner of the shop I worked at ordered a 50th anniversary in red w/ gold. We never opened the box, it went straight ot the basement. Same thing with our Grateful Dead Hoo Koo E Koo.
Is there a chance the Cinelli seat is OEM? Both the Ebay bike and the bike in post #14 have the same seat. It seems like to much of a coincidence.
