Here's another genius who's overpriced bike will not sell for a bit, and then he/she'll wonder why? I dont give a sh%^ if it's built by Andy Pandy, not "worth" that much IMO, I could be wrong, but doubtful. This is the other spectrum of things for Ebay, if it's not a ridiculously high dollar bike(usually stolen) for a pittance amount, it's some guy who thinks he's found the holy grail of bikes, and thinks it's worth a gazillion dollars & then wonders why no one's buying on his fantastic price. I bet if tyou asked him, he's "giving it away at that price" too? Why even bother listing it if you're just going to be ridiculous with your pricing?

Campania bikes were made in Japan and imported in Southern California.

If you can free up the RSX 7speed brifters, they and the saddle are worth close to the purchase price-

With that fork, I'm sure it rides perfectly...bad.
https://southbend.craigslist.org/bik/3019734613.html
This is a Centurion Sport-DLX Touring Road Bike that rides perfectly. Bought this bike a few years back and absolutely love it. Unfortunately, I'll be leaving South Bend next week for good and cannot take this bike with me. There are a few cosmetic issues including some damage to the seat and handlebars. However, the bike rides great and replacement for these small problems can be found easily and cheaply.

Robbing the wheels and seat/seatpost off of a $25 bike, does not make it an $85 bike.,,,,BD

"made for the serious rider..not a cheap bike"
https://albany.craigslist.org/bik/3027153948.html
Nothing shows the seriousness of a rider like those turned up handlebars and rusty components. He is right, it is not cheap at $175.

once a week for the last month or so this has been posted, each time with the price about 25 dollars lower Its at 175 right now, the listing is still showing it as when it was at 250. I am looking forward to seeing at what point it sells, in fact when it stops appearing I may call to find out. What a great way to figure out the market!
Also, don't think its a 58.
