Question Value of Edge FX foils?

I recently purchased a couple boxes of Gerber foils. Ten were FX foils that I have no need for. All have caddies. Wondering what they might be worth so I could put them on Ebay.

1. Burgandy - 39 yrds.
2. Process Yellow - 27 yrds.
3. Process Pro Magenta - 41 yrds.
4. Process Pro Cyan - 14 yrds.
5. Forest Green - 44 yrds.
6. Black - 13 yrds.
7. Gold - 42 yrds.
8. Process Pro Black - 60% of 45 yards. (I don't see any markings to show remainder)
9. Tomato Red - 75% of 100 yrds. (Apex refill - no remaining markers)
10. Super Opaque White - 25% of 80 yrds. (Apex refill)

Thanks.

i am curious, i bought 2 or 3 edges that came with foils.
how do you know what is left in a caddy?
i tried using 2 identical scales, figuring the weight shifts from one side to the other as you use the foil. (kind of like the scale motor vehicle used for brake tests)

Any more, they come with remaining yardage marked on the edge of the foil. FX foils also have a RFID chip that keeps track of remaining foil amounts.

I never pay more than half of MSRP for "used" foils... prorated, of course.
If a 50 yard foil sells for $150 at Grimco (or wherever), and there's only 25 yards left, I'm not paying more than ~$40 for it.
