Four Carbon Frames. What are they worth?
I have four carbon frames and forks that I intend to sell, but first I need to know what they are worth. These were given to our local co-op, which will get the benefit of the sale.
First up is a Specialized Tarmac Comp.
Next is a Ridley Damocles.
Third is an Orbea time trial bike, name unknown to me.
Finally is a Felt B16.
Any help you can give me as to models, years, etc also will be appreciated. We deal with old steel and alu bikes, so I am not at all familiar with these frames.

Pardon for the delay. The Specialized is a 61 according to the label. I did not see a size marked on the Ridley, but I measured the seat post as 23” from the center of the bb to the top of the post. The Orbea has a sticker that says T 57, which I suspect is the frame height. And the Felt is a 52.

You can do eBay searches using the brand and model---choose "Completed Listings" or "Sold" in the left column to get an idea of price ranges. (For example, a similar Specialized Tarmac Comp frameset was listed for $396 and sold for an undisclosed "best offer.") Those frames all look as though they're less than 6 years old or thereabouts.

I appreciate the comments. I fortunately have a friend who is an expert at reselling things, so I may simply rely on her to try to figure out a decent price. And you are right, there are quite a few shops in Seattle, with whom I am on good terms (see my sig below. ;-) ) A couple of the frames have a chip or two in the paint but seem pretty sound otherwise.

If you want to donate parts, I believe there is a co-op in Kent. Otherwise, the best place would be Bike Works, the main co-op in Seattle. It is in the Columbia City area.
