The 25.4cm (Note--not 'inches' as per the ad) seatpost on the Raleigh indicates that it's high tensile steel, rather than cro moly. It also needs some work done on it.
My guess is that the Takara would be a better choice. I also like the orange colour.
Edit: You might want to check the Takara for a steel composition label, but I still think it's a more likely buy than the Raleigh.
