Description: New-Old-Stock Gipiemme Seatpost w/Shiny Silver Fluted Pillar (26.6 mm x 215 mm)...Retail Boxed...Shopwear Thank you for your interest in this item and please visit our store for other offerings. We have very reasonable shipping terms and combine orders to save money (for customers) on shipping costs. We also maintain customer friendly return/refund/exchange policies. Product Description: This offering is for a new-old-stock Gipiemme seatpost with milled (shallow) sections often referred to as flutes and a shiny (polished) silver finish. Some of it's more prominent design features and specs include the following... Size: 26.6 mm (post/pillar diameter) Total length: 215 mm (measured from the middle of the saddle clamp to the bottom of the pillar) Usable length (max): 155 mm (measured from the middle of the saddle clamp to the limit line) Off set: 25 mm (horizontal distance from the center of the post/pillar to the center of the saddle clamp bolt) Weight: 235 grams (per our digital postal scale) Other notes: The post/pillar and nearly all the saddle clamp parts are made from an aluminum alloy. The saddle clamp bolt and washer are made from a chromoly steel. We originally purchased a few samples of these seatposts and although the cosmetic condition was not always as nice as we had hoped (as the original "samples" were not retail boxed), they were well received by customers, so we purchased the remaining stocks from a European wholesaler. We particularly like the traditional styling and shiny (polished) silver finish that covers most of the pillar. We also like the engraved "Gipiemme" logo on the frontside of the pillar. It's a nice, albeit understated, touch to this classic looking seatpost. As we have noted in other Gipiemme seatpost listings, many of the units were bulk packed in boxes of 20 with individual slots cut out in the box for each post to stand in an upright position (and free from contact from other seatposts). Although, that is not the case here, as we were able to acquire some of these seatposts in their original retail packaging. This offering is for one of those Gipiemme seatposts (in it's original cardboard box). Although, as we inspect each of these shiny silver seatpost in their original retail packaging, we are noting a difference in cosmetic condition. Simply put, some show more shopwear (scuffs and scratches) on the shiny/polished silver finish, while others are relatively clean and in nicer cosmetic condition. This particular offering is for the former, so one of the more shopworn units that does not show quite as nice. I can also confirm the pictures have been updated to better illustrate the visible scuffs and scratches. So the seatpost pictured here is the actual unit that will sell/ship. Finally, the price has been discounted from our cosmetically nicer offerings to reflect this shopwear.

Note to international customers regarding shipping... We apologize to those that feel some of our international shipping charges are too high. We only charge actual shipping rates, but once an order exceeds a certain amount, we hesitate to use the least expensive US Postal Services First Class International service. We feel this way, because this service is not trackable or insurable...so more risk of loss. We prefer the US Postal Services Priority Mail International service for more expensive orders, because this service is trackable at USPS.com and insurable...so less risk of loss. Unfortunately, this service is more expensive, especially for smaller/lighter packages, relative to the First Class International service. We are sorry about these higher shipping costs, but hopefully our notes help to explain why this is the case. Note to international customers regarding customs... We also apologize to those that feel their country import taxes, duties and brokerage fees are excessive. As a small US business, we are required by customs' laws to declare each order as a retail sale. Additionally, the declared order value must be equal to total store purchases and/or winning auction bids (less any shipping costs, as these are not considered in the declared value). As a result, each customer will be responsible for paying his/her own country taxes, duties and brokerage fees, which will be collected upon delivery. Again, we apologize for these additional costs, but we cannot afford the penalties and fines that come with breaking customs' laws...so we have to strictly abide by them.
