Carbs like anything else are worth what someone will pay. It all depends on condition, rarity,demand. I have bought several rough looking 10-20 carbs for $25ea and one (1928 version)turned out to have been rebuilt but looked bad on the outside. I took it apart and cleaned the brass in phosphoric acid and it looks mint now. It might bring $200 to the right person if I wanted to sell it. I have a super rare Bijure, generator for an early brass era car about 1910-1015 or so.

If I put a price on it and it sells right away, I either sold it too cheap or I found the right person who needs it. Some restoration parts places seem to be out of sight for carbs and the like.
