Just a reminder that there is no warranty that this is a real Masi. People repaint bikes with other manufacturers decals all the time. If you are serious it would be worth looking at in person. There are no pictures of any of the give-away characteristics of a real Masi. Not saying it is not just saying there is no way to know. I have never seen an original Masi with a dark blue panel scheme. Buyer be ware.

True Mike Kelly, things can always be faked and I like you are only reporting what Shopgoodwill.com has posted for this auction and pictures associated with the auction of this bike having never seen the bike, so too true buyer beware.

But you can ask the Goodwill store auctioning the bike for additional pictures of head tube badge/decal, chain stay decal, seat tube decals and any other unique aspects to a Masi that would help in making the determination of authenticity, along with a picture of the serial number.

When I have requested such information they have usually provided me with the additional pictures asked for.

Perhaps some of the Forums Masi experts can shed light on this question too?

Well someone's happy $626.00 won the auction, but not without double sniping in the last 15 seconds, share the joy if it's you, then enjoy the ride.

Take Care

That was a nice score. I’m certainly no authority, but it looks like the real deal. Very similar to this listing.
