Maybe like 400-450 for the older one, mostly for the components. Maybe $650-750 for the newer one. Depends on location etc

Still learning
Lousy photos = low valuations. Work on that skill.
Include model name and specs too when available.

Not Classic, Not Vintage......Yet! But like every bike, the parts are worth more separately than when all together on a bike. Don

People still want those OCLV Carbon bikes no matter what the anti carbon crowd say.
Is this some sort of investment, or are you going to ride it?

wrk101 isn't the OP. He's responding with a reality, and a suggestion that reflects his personal preferences for older bicycles. I don't understand your response to him, especially given that this is a sub-forum of C&V.

I sold my 04 5900 OCLV for $550 with full dura ace, i would expect the newer Madone might be a $1000 bike. Buyers in that price range might nit pick it for being 10'speed though

I saying if you buy a good 30 year old bike, then pretty much all of its depreciation has already been taken. If you buy a 5 year old bike, you can avoid a lot of depreciation, but not all of it. If you buy new, then expect to take a big hit depreciation wise. In my experience, the depreciation on new bikes is a steeper curve than a new car.
Personally I would not buy a bike based on its upcoming depreciation. I'd make my choice based on what I like, and get the value out of it by riding it.

I would not be surprised if the Madone went for $800-$1000
