I was going to say, $800 exceeds the value of most of my frames.
I could imagine paying a bit to get a 90's/2000's Colnago frame repainted. But, probably not for the older generation monechrome frames.
Some of my Colnagos appear to have decals. Others appear to be painted. Although, I think someone mentioned that they may also have a paint transfer method they use.
