A "basic" Mercian is 300 pounds. With the current exchange that's about $445 US. Add 40-45 pounds for shipping and you're just over $500 US. Hell, I went ape with options (rack painted to match, headset installed, extra braze-ons, more paintwork, etc) and mine came to $770 US w/shipping.
Marinoni (sp?) of Canada has some very nice frames at attractive prices, too.
