Agreed.
Any news on the actual shipping cost yet?
At $62... you're at $200 roughly already... which is only $50 off from a Mark V.
However.. if all is well with the frame.... etc etc.
Kudos.

still waiting for the shipping cost, I'm really wondering about the geometry, but hopefully if it's too slack (road bike) I can fix it with one of the random track forks I have laying around.

I bought my frame off this seller a year ago. I didn't recognize the brand name either, but it turned out to be a great frame, which I love with all my soul. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
