"How do you know it's beautiful? Seriously, those pictures tell me almost

nothing, except if I closely squint my eyes, that it is not the same model as

mine... WTF is up with this swiping pics anyway? Geez Louise...?

That's perilously close to bait-and-switch, IMO.

I don't believe that frame has the star cutouts in the sides of the headlugs, and I can't tell if it has the curly-cue cutouts in the lugs, the photos are so poor. The downtube decal does indicate the frame is a Special - though obviously not the same or in the same class as Dale's (or mine). The seller clearly doesn't have much of an idea what he or she is doing. Definitely not in the first rank of Picchio frames.
