Bike valuation

I'm wanting to sell a couple of bikes, but they've been modified a fair bit and so I'm have no idea how to value them. Is there a formula or something (e.g. loses 20% of its value per year) that I can follow?

    Stick them on Ebay with a minimum price of what you would accept?

    Anything is only worth what someone is willing to pay.
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.

    I was hoping to sell them through here as eBay is quite expensive (Listing fees + 10% goes to eBay, then 3.4% goes to PayPal). But I need a firm price to place an advert. I'll have to just put a price on I think, then see what people say I guess :-P

    Half of new retail if a couple of years old in good nick is a fair estimate.

    A third of new price if not

    If you sell it in Poundland then you need to sell it for a quid.

    If you could sell it in Portugal it would be worth double UK price, so RRP for a second hand bike, nice!
