Default What price should I ask for my Tickford 17x8s?

I'm going to list my AU Tickford rims for sale, but just wondering what sort of price I should put on them. Any ideas? 17x8s with 2 alright tyres, other 2 tyres have had it. Ta'

Anything around $500 to $700, depending on condition of rims - the more scratches etc, the lower the price.

Looks like again too (kind of). The XR rims are 17x8. The fairlane rims were 17 x 7.5 (same as BAs).

Yikes!! Unbeknown to me, as I was posting this, a guy from up the street saw my new blingy rims and stopped in to talk to hubby. Hubby sold him my Tickford rims for $200!!!!!!! Oh well, I guess it's best to get them out of our limited garage space quickly.

Bargain. $200 in the hand is worth $500 in the bush???? Or something like that.
