We'd like to know how everyone assigns value to donated bikes? Do you assess each bike to estimate its individual value, or do you assign some sort of average value, or something else altogether?
Thanks,

we get three cooks to assess the bike and then we average out those numbers. we don't always have three people on hand to assess but it should at least be done by two people, we think.
when i started volunteering this policy had long been established - i never gave it much thought but there's probably room for improvement!

I cross reference w craigslist and eBay. I add value to our higher level of service and/or cost of shipping the bike too. But what will really peg the sales price of your inventory is what other shops are selling used bikes for.
