Hey folks. 

Curious to get some help. 
I’m moving up from my Homer to an Appaloosa so I can lug more and hop off trail with a bit more of a rugged frame. 

A friend wanted to buy my Homer which has a couple of surface dings on the top tube and I’ll cannabalize the rest for the Joe build but leave the Paul racers on. 

Does anyone know what a fair price would be? 

Thanks in advance,
Lucia from Oakland

Assuming you're the original owner of the frame , 50% of what you paid for frame and brakes (Bill Lindsey's rule of thumb) is a good starting point.

Maybe you have to take off a little bit more for those surface dings (with a picture of said dings).

Yes. Og owner. 

That makes sense. Thank you.

Are the Paul Racers mounted to braze-ons?  Do you know if this was one of the AHHs made by Waterford? Size? Photos? 

I'd say that 50% of original list is the base -- but more info and photos would help. Braze-on mounts for the racers, Waterford made, and size as well as how bad the dings are all might make it worth more (esp. the 1st two) or less in the eye of a buyer, but of course as you mention a possible sale to a friend the value of that friendship might be the determining factor...
