Does anyone have a pricer for fancy parts and/or an accessible parts hierarchy sheet including older stuff?
Thanks and love, Jonny

Will, all:
I've attached a copy of our "bike pricer," the low-tech algorithm that we use to determine baseline pricing for our refurbished bikes. It is printed on the opposite side of a sheet of paper along with the "BIKE WORKSHEET," which is the paper form that our mechanics fill out to document parts used on a given bike. These forms have all the information I then use to enter them into our inventory/POS system (QuickBooks POS, in our case - I would probably use Lightspeed Cloud http://www.lightspeedretail.com/cloud/pos-system/, formerly MerchantOS, if I were starting from scratch and the organization could afford the fees
- automatic QBP syncing and no network issues as long as you have internet
is so helpful!).
I've also attached a sample of the tags which we attach to the bikes in the showroom when they are put out for sale, which is generated by a custom-formatted template in QBPOS.
Jim Sheehan, our director, originally designed our pricer and it has gone through surprisingly few iterations over the years, but we have discussed recently adding more additions and deductions for things like 700C wheels (+), crappy canti brakes (-), micro-adjust seatpost (+), etc. I designed the worksheet. Please feel free to copy and adapt, and please just credit us if you re-share your adaptations and share-alike!
Hope these help! Please contact me directly if you would like the Excel spreadsheet versions of these to edit.

Hey everyone,
Thanks for the great discussion at BikeBike on inventory. Attached is the handout that I had. I am also cc'ing this to the thinktank list.
Please send this along to anybody else who may want to see the information.
