Looking for info (Hoodoo AL)

So I have this bike, Voodoo Hoodoo AL, that I purchased in May 2000. I intended to get into mountain biking but never found any friends to join me. So... this bike has sat in my garage all except for the 3 days I road it. Only took it off the road once and that was a dirt road

Anyhow, It has to go... I noticed shortly after purchasing the bike the company disappeared. I did a search and found a couple things on the bike, BUT, I am asking for more information on, my best options on selling the bike and also what it may be worth now...

All basic options: jett fork, deore
I forget what size it is but I am 5'8'' if that helps

TIA

Pictures would really help. Try listing out the components and the condition they are in. As for selling the bike. Make sure you know what you are talking about. Find out the size (should say on the frame) and any other important info on it.

Since the bike is 4 - 5 years old, I think it has depreciated in value. Don't expect $1000 if you paid $ 1000 for it.

I remember seeing Hellbent on the bars, TruVativ on the crank and I think the neck, WTB on the seat and tires and I know the shifters and derailers were Shimano Deore, the fork was just a Jett and I think the brakes said Avid.

Sorry this is so vague, but I have only used and looked at the bike 3 times and that was several years ago.

EDIT: the bike was @$550 new, I was just wondering if there was any "extra" appeal for these bikes (frames) since they are no longer available

This is the best pic I could get without bringing it down. The neck says Ritchey as does the seat post. Everything else I posted earlier seemed correct.
Thanks
