There is a fairly active group of vintage enthusiasts over at bikeforums.net but you have to be a paying member to sell stuff there. Seems like a fair price to me though the mixed matched wheelset is not helping. I don't know, been some pretty good deals here lately must be hard to sell bikes this time of year. I'd be real tempted on this one if it was my size.

Posted for you on Bike Forums Classic and Vintage forum in the "Are you looking for one of these?" thread.
PS. Might update your OP to reflect price change.

56x55=58cm bike? That seems unusual to me.

The geometry of the Gios Super Record was different than others at the time in that they used a shorter top tube and measured the seat tube c-t.
dancinkozmo's Gios ST is 58 c-t or 56 c-c, with a 55 top tube c-c.
My early '80s Gios ST measures 60 c-t or 58 c-c; my top tube is approx 56.5 (maybe 57).

I had an 84 Gios Professional and it was a blast. Really agressive geometry. Very square. Similar to early 80's colnagos. It was responsive and stiff. Definitely a good bike from someone who loves modern but wants to give classic steel a shot. I even think these are sweet candidates for an upgrade to say Record 9 (hidden arm). BTW, mine wasn't as nice and sold for a lot more. |

I couldn't agree with you more. I love riding my "neo-classic" Gios (Chorus/Record 10-speed):
