How much should I shave off for sale of used brake parts?

Hey, guys.
I want to sell my Wilwood calipers but am not sure how much to shave off for used brake parts that don't get wear like rotors and hoses. Ehay only shows new or used ones that are less or more expensive versions than what I have so I can't compare accurately. What can I expect to knock off of the retail price for high quality but used calipers?
Thanks
Chris
 
Would you buy used brakes? I wouldn't. You'd be lucky to get 50% of new prices.

Yep bough a comple set of KH for a 66 paid double (maybe triple)what they cost in 66 :toot
 
your in los angeles right? try going to pomona swap meet and selling them tommorow or make some flyers and put emm on all the applicable cars
 
If the ones you do see on ebay or other sites are more expensive just figure what percentage of the "new" price they are asking now and use the same percentage to sell yours. Say the more expensive ones are $100 new and they are selling for $50 used, its 50%, etc...

We do have a classified section here on the site.....and a number of guys working on cars, on occasion.
 
I'd buy used calipers, as they are rebuildable. Post them in the classifieds, or at least what they fit. You might be surprised.
 
Wilwood is a good brand, and most people would have no problems buying used calipers. I'd guess about 75% of original value, less if you want a fast sell.
