I believe that the triple butted chromoly is the Modena model. They are a canadian company (actually made by norco), from what I know. There is some info on them here: https://www.bikeforums.net/classic-vintage/285816-fiori-bikes.html
And, i found a couple modenas on kijiji and craigslist that are priced well below that one:

https://toronto.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-s...QAdIdZ81422100
https://nashville.craigslist.org/bik/886745635.html
So, i think the question is whether you think the components are worth a couple hundred dollars, since the frame doesnt seem to be anything special.
You should also notice that that bike has been posted twice: once in the beginning of September for 600 and again in october for 550, so people clearly arent biting (which should tell you something).
Hope this helps
