Good frames with light damage
I have a few frames that I would actualy ride myself, but are to small
They have some issues, like a mid eightys miyata 610 with a rear derailer cable stop with some rust inside, though the frame is rust ree inside. The stop is structuraly sound but the paint has come off and its not pristene, a 531 Puch brigadier with very light cracks int he paint on the top and down tube next to the lug(like it was impacted, but strait fork and frame(by the old string test and it rides well), mostly those two but some others. Cosmeticaly they are not great(the miyata is fair).
What do you guys do with bikes like this? I thought about taking really good pics and selling them cheap but it may not be worth the ebay fees. I have seen worse on ebay though. Just wondering.

I would take good pics and try to sell them on craigslist before ebay.
