Default Rebuilt front calipers, what are they worth?

As the question above asks, what are a pair f front calipers fitted with new seals and rubbers worth?

I've got some somewhere in the garage and just wondering if they're worth refurbing or just leaving in the box of bits.

If it were me I wouldn't bother refurbing them and just flog them.

If I'm buying a set of calipers, chances are I know what I'm doing. Trouble is I don't know if you do (as a seller that is). So I would automatically rebuild them myself before use regardless of what the advert said.

I've sold a couple of sets of refurbed SV calipers on ebay and got £70 for each pair.
