OK, so why did this alleged mid 1980s De Rosa SLX with almost complete Campy Super Record gruppo, sell for so cheap on Ebay? The ad and description looked honest enough, with none of the known "Nigerian Scam"(tm) mistakes. Could it possibly be the Kvale quality repaint? Or maybe, was this bike already sold recently and this was a pirated Ebay account? Or was it the mere two (2) feedback postings, regardless of the good description?

Or, Ebay item number 6619896950.

*Did 31 miles on my Fabulous Flaming Ferrari Fixie the other day, and will be doing 60 miles tomorrow to Ann Arbor and back on the Gianni Motta ... man, warm weather is a TREAT!
