Like Hippy's link suggests, Campag never made frames, but do make drop-outs (and I think maybe fork crowns in the past...) Anyway - you definitely HAVEN'T bought a Campag frame, but if whoever did make it used Campy dropouts then it must be pretty decent quality... With workhorse frames like this that have been passed around between club racers and repainted it's almost impossible to guess who the maker is, or the what tubeset was used. And at this price it doesn't really matter - if it arrives and it's light and true and you've bought the right size in the first place, then you have a bargain! Sounds like it genuinely has been used for racing/training, so is unlikely to be mild steel...
