@bikemig Here's the OfferUp ad from 24-48 hours prior to auction - eBay auction cap is below that.



Here's the eBay auction: 1963 Bianchi Specialissima

Same bike... Note both sold out of GA, about 20 miles apart. 100% positive the two sellers are different people.

Hoax - same unique garage door in both listings!
“2 sellers, 2 listings, 2 prices, 2 locations”
2 bad a great bike like that isn’t restored original.
1 fishy garage door!

You obviously don't live in Atlanta

That's one of three common garage doors at every big-box hardware store here. Half the houses in every suburb have it.

Note the massive dent in one, not in the other, but more than anything, look at how the slab is finished, one has 4-5" between the door and concrete seam. Other is closer to 9-10".

I ended up watching that bike change hands three times in less than 4 weeks. Lost track of it after the 3rd time.
