Given that I have sold a Raleigh Grand Prix Mixte for $200 and a heavy Raleigh C-40 Hybrid for $199, both reconditioned of course, $200 for a SC MK II. Fuggedaboutit.

A similar vintage Trek or Peugeot or Moto with a 531 butted frame and similar components would sell for mid $300's to over $400, if reconditioned. Of course I tend to buy those for less and in my size, so I can't say I've sold any 531 framed bikes.
