Please make the appraisals as uniform as possible, based on the guidelines below. IRS guidelines suggest a “market value”— however, there is NOT a large market for second-hand bicycles hence the values typically are quite low. The IRS suggests that valu- ations be in line with what a person would generally receive at a "rummage sale", "flea market", or "swap meet", i.e., linked to realistic fair market re-sale values.
