Which market are you referring to? I'm not certain if it was this particular bike or another, or if someone stole the pictures. I just put the bike up for sale a few moments ago on the classifieds.
My grandfather was Swiss and the Eddy Merckx and Colnago were purchased here in Zurich, Switzerland, home of ICS (that explains the shifters on the Eddy Merckx) and Toni Rominger, who had Swiss roots and is still a legend in this country (that explains the Colnago) :)

there was one on ebay a year or so ago and as far as i recall, i did not get the impression the sale was fraudulant
(edit)
there are quite a number of rominger technos images available, this purports to be from a prototype model
