The seller uses a lot of terms that are inappropriate for his auctions. In fact, I tried to very civilly mention to him that the hideous arts and crafts project seat bag he's selling with "Campagnolo", "Cinelli" and "NOS" in the thread title is in violation of eBay policy. His response was less than cordial so I reported the listing. eBay is more than a little lax about following up on community watch reports, but maybe if enough other people report it as well it will get noticed and slapped down.

I think the frame could be pretty sharp looking, and if it fits you and you like it, why not spend some money on it? That said, the seller is a f#$%ing tool, and his half-assed builds are going to get somebody killed. In that respect alone -not because of tubing, components, or price- I think your purchase was a mistake because it gives the seller no impetus to realize that he's got it all wrong. If he's selling his poorly executed bikes at exorbitant prices he must be doing something right, right?
