For Sale: Conti (by Ciocc) road frame 56,5 cm

I am offering this just because I want some other frame for me (winds of change :)), but if it does not sell, let it be. I don't have any rush of selling it, but if I come across something nicer, owning five bikes for me will be too much :)
This is a really really rare thing, I came across only few similar ones, but not the same:

I bought this some 4-5 years ago. First was using it as fixed, later as road bike. To skip the long story, read further (to read all story, check here: http://www.lfgss.com/thread87755.html)

So the frame is in pretty good condition, some bruises here and there, nothing major (maybe one scratch to mention is on the top of downtube, near shifter cable-stop braze-ons). There is some paint fallen off on top tube just few centimeters behind headtube - I have suspicions that it might have been very slightly bent.

TT - 56,5 cm (c-c)
ST - 58,5 cm (c-c)
Made from Oria ML 34 tubing (the lightest of all Oria tubings, check the chart for specs) and all three main tubes have this awesome "twisted" shape.

Exclusive and beautiful frame!

Not being horrible but this frame had a head on impact hence the fatigue marks on the tt and dt...

You are not horrible :)
This might be true, I already pointed that out. Still, 4 years riding with this and didn't spot any changes or smth, it's just a thing you forget after a while.
If this is the bad issue then I think I should withdraw it from sale

...but first I will make big price drop - 200 pounds posted :)

the dropped price made me interested...

the frame is straight and true?

shipping to London £?

Hey

I checked the tubes and did not encounter any structrual damages, cracks or bendings (except for the above mentioned damage on the front of DT and TT).
