As someone who looks a lot at frames 60 cm and up, I wouldn't worry too much about a frame like that having value limited by seatpost length! If you think it will help, categorize it with eBay using the C/C dimension (but be sure to list both C/C and C/T in description and at least one in title).

Before going the eBay route, why not try offering it on the CR list -- need to give an asking price, but you don't need to sell if you don't like the offers. You might find big fish there.

If you do go eBay, be sure to list it worldwide. They like Masis everywhere.

Who repainted it? A respected name would make a difference to knowledgeable potential collectors.

strange that you should mention that, I went to a lecture about black holes last night.

With the dbl plate crown, a rarity on Cali Masi's, I'll bet you could turn the frame for what you paid for the entire bike, with a little patience of course. I wouldn't take less than 1450 for it. Inly possible problem I see is the possibility that that's a powder coat. If it is, then you're back down to $900.

$800 for that parts is a good deal. It's not just a nuovo record group, It's a complete period correct pre-CPSC nuovo record group with all the goodie like cinelli stem and bar (a minimum $100 value) and rims and tires and chain and cassette... etc...
A good buy no matter how you look at it.

Most of that could be put together for far less then $700 with some patience, time, and good trades.

Just an update...The seller is buying back the frame for my asking price of $1K. The bike itself arrived in immaculate condition. Nicely painted, not powedercoated, and with NOS parts galore. Whoever bought his other Masi, the yellow one, I'm sure got a similarly nice bike.

Really not sure the purpose of shipping this whole bike back and forth? Seems would have been a lot easier if the seller had just taken off all the parts and sent them along for the $700 or so, saved some shipping and potential frame wear and tear (or even damage) by doing so. The less bike frames are exposed to UPS/FedEx handling, the better, IMHO.
