You are joking, right? OUR club has members in all 50 states, Puerto Rico, Guam, and some other places too. The SSTLZ fan club.

But as we all know, mixtes command a premium over diamond frames.

Well I have always been able to get at least $150 for well presented clean Mixte's, despite the fact most are low end junk bike wise.

$500? Agent?

I just sold this on eBay for $232 plus $100 shipping. I know the pictures were not the greatest. I was trying to clear space more than make money. I thought $232 + $100 was a fair price. Given the choice, I would take the Voyageur over the Zebra 100 times out of 100.
Good luck with the $500.

OP has an ad on Jacksonville Craigslist that advertises his services in bike restoration. He lists the Zebra as already having been restored. Hope he posts pics so we can see the transformation.
