Goodwill also has an auction site, I know in my area, all the decent bikes, cameras, etc, seem to get skimmed for the central location, sent to the auction site, or disappear otherwise. The co-op is straight-up. Donations get recycled into affordable transit, or, if the frame is bad, etc, it is just plain recycled. Sorting is carried out by a couple of guys with some background in bicycles. Sometimes people drop off whole trailer loads of bicycles and stuff, and most bicycles sell for less than Wal*Mart close out prices. But we're 150 miles away from Chicago, and Chicago prices as well. You just don't see the same bikes, though, as well. Few Italian bikes, mostly lower end Peugeots, Gitanes, and Motos for French bicycles. Basic Raleighs. My Falcon San Remo is the only one I've ever seen. Loads of basic bikes to get people to and from work, and loads of parts to fix the ones that get broken in the going.
