bike value

Need help trying to figure out the value of my bike so I can have an idea on how much I should sell it for. It's a 2003 Marin Verona purchased in July of 2003. I have between 2,000 and 2,500 miles on it but the wheels probably have about 1000 with relatively new Fortezza tires. The wheels are true from what I can see and the bike frame is in good condition with a couple of paint scrapes due to my friend's bike rack.

Here's the complete specs: marinbikes.comspec verona.htmlOpen ↗

So about 500? More? Less?

While I'm not familiar with the Verona, based on recent experience (from selling an `04 Giant TCR Aluminum) I'd say less than $500. Put it on ebay and see what happens.

I would have said take the reatil value and divide it by 2.5. Then knock off another $100 for wear and tear and you probably have a fair price.

Thanks all. I actually just received some inquiries about the bike and so far, the two potential buyers are ok with 600 bucks. Let's see if it sells.
