Ebay and auction watch: let us know if you see something

Is this a 531 do you reckon? I don't know enough to say yay or nay/

It's got a Columbus sticker on the seat tube. Personally I always preferred that to 531.

Could be anything with a shiny coat of paint. But why does the seller think it is not what it says.
What diameter seat post is a good starting point.
Imho I feel it's expensive considering

I just think he's not sure and yes it is a tad dear.

I suppose if it is genuine then price is not to bad

One thing I have noticed from my return is that bikes have gone up in price.

They certainly have.

Broke my heart to sell it, one of the nicest builds I did last year, it was just too big for me, if I can find a smaller 653 frame I’ll build up another to keep, I’ve already got some of the bits ready.

If you are on facebook there is a guy in Lincoln who has just posted up a load of frames including a 653 Ribble but no indication of size. it can be found on the "Vintage Race Bikes - Only Steel is Real!" group

The beuty of e-Bay (if there can be such a thing) is that you can offer/bid what you think a thing's worth to you.

Thanks, I’m afraid I don’t do Facebook.
