Surely it's only comparable if geo, welding, build, paint etc. are the same?

True.
Just using BJ as an eg because they make handbuilt steel frames and I guessed Thron would be on par with the Vigorelli's 631 frame. So was just doing some basic price comparison's outloud and asking for opinions.
As for BJ's rep... I agree its better to go with an established framebuilder, but is not like BJ have the best rep at the mo - even if it's not to do with the quality of their building.
