What is market value for Thrice+ patched tubes?

This is a neat bike with a lot of charm and it feels fast.
I'm at $94.00
I think each patch could be a percentage of depreciation. Say each patch reduces the value by 50%, then a $10 tube with 4 patches is worth 63 cents. Beyond that, the patches cost more than the tube is worth.
