Looks like the virus is helping to chase the cool old rides out of their hidden places. Seen several old roadies offered lately, but only two that blew my kilt up.
The old adage snooze, you lose comes into play, especially if considering a lower offer.

Regarding the Marinoni, looks very nice. Cleaned up as you usually do, I'd say easy $700-750 USD or equivalent. I suggest you do your clean up and ride it for a few days/weeks, just to be sure it works well and you don't get any issues with it. You might even consider putting some newer tires on it to see how it feels with more modern rubber. Too bad its your size, but I'm sure after riding it and making sure its good to go, you'll easily part with it....maybe. Good luck!
