new legnanos on eBay - Fraud alert

130218324854 and 130218334666 - same bike, different sellers. Probably neither one is legit. I caught it on a cross-reference ("campagnolo"). Buyer beware...

maybe not, either, but the exact same pictures in both ads make me suspicious. maybe he just goofed posting.

Also has a Sommerhalder (130218139826)

It looks like a mistake posting, but the black bike does not look like a Legnano to me. I am pretty ignorant about them, but I thought they would be Columbus tubing, not 531.

The chrome one looks nice, but I would be pretty wary of bidding on it.

Easy there. Looks like he just used the wrong url for the pics on the second bike, as he's hosting his own photos. Probably copied and pasted most of the ad and forgot to change them.

If you click on the link to more photos on the 60's bike page it takes you to the right pics matching his description.

Not fraud.

The black bike looks like a Legnano, just one from the 70's, without the cool seat-lug.

Yeah. I see that now. I was in a hurry last night, and jumped the gun a little. He's got 'em all right now...
