About a month ago I stumbled upon a BrickLink shop with multiples of these
visors in various colors all listed at $10 each. That was more than I could
stomach for a part with such limited usefulness, so I did not buy any. I do
not recall which shop but it was a seller in Germany or Denmark, I believe.
I am against telling you how much something is worth, but I can say that it
would probably not be unreasonable to ask for 5 or 6 dollars each for the pair
of visors you have. The best place for this would be
lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade.
