Don't sweat it. They probably just mistook this thread for the other thread.

Original-looking F-frame, 4-speed, posted weeks ago at $260.

Tart this up and have a comfy stealthy city-zipper.

This is a very rare bird anywhere, let alone in Canada. It's not a Takara Elitist and I don't think that name on the top tube is Tribute. I have no idea what the model is but it seems to be a real bike.
It has braze on shifter bosses, what appear to be 700c wheels with Presta tubes (could be replacement wheels) and it has at least a Suntour Accushift Rd and matching shifters with a possible correct FD.
Even with the heavy drop we have seen in Canadian prices, this still looks like value for money.
