Yes I am a little behind here :)

What would you value the following donation at?

1 Gary Fisher Tassajara,
1 Diamondback Apex SE,
2 add'l Araya TM-820 rims w/ tires

I am using TurboTax and if I go through the affiliated donation program, it values each bike at $24?! They don't have different levels of bikes, just an adult bike is $24.

The bikes were probably $500/new and were several yrs old.

Thanks!

Just checked, I found a few of each..one is $200-$285, one is $70-$250. Rims look to be $10-$30. So now I'm thinking $350 for the lot?

I wasn't sure if CL "counted" since the bikes haven't actually sold for the listed price. But these prices seem reasonable.

Thanks!
