I hear ya, Dave (and have probably given you the same advice), but I just don't have the budget for it after buying a Rambouillet last week. We all gotta draw the line somewhere, and mine is at 1300 bucks for another frame. Of course it'd be great if the seller came down to something I could conceivably pull off, but I think it unlikely. I'm sure there's somebody out there who can give this rather unique Riv a good home. Joe Bernard Vallejo, CA.
