Anyone else see this ti serotta? fender mounts in 3d dropouts, maybe extended dropouts in fork? Is this an all road option?

The fork looks like a standard fork (I have an ARO fork and the dropout is slightly longer and there are fender-mount screws in the upper part of the dropout). Unless the chainstays are extended, clearance for a rear fender would be tight. If you're interested, I would contact the seller for measurements.

...Those are the standard dropouts of that era. They're also the ones that had issues with cracking and Serotta had a "soft recall" and replaced them.

We've never met, but I'm pretty sure that frame is a size too small for you. :)

More seriously, when does a Fierte frameset sell for over $2k?

wasn't list for this frame about $1300? Steel Fierte about $900? It's been a long time so I'm not sure about the pricing but they were the cheapest frames from Serotta.

List for the TI frameset was around $3300 I believe, but $2000+ for a Serotta frameset (what lifetime warranty) is over the moon. Maybe the seller will wise up and drop the price, or maybe he'll find a sucker.
