Nick, The seller indicates that he's only willing to ship within France. So interested buyers who might even accept a lady's frame, are out of luck. Plus, the listing indicates the auction might be withdrawn because the bike is also listed elsewhere. So, one could expend a fair amount of effort making arrangements, only to have the bike "disappear" from availability. I figure that's not helping the auction too much, either.
