Used turbo trainers in Colorado Springs typically sell for $67 to $405. Trainers divide sharply between basic wheel-on units and smart direct-drive ones, and the two barely compete.
Selling a turbo trainer in Colorado Springs
Colorado Springs has a very large military presence and sits directly beneath serious mountain terrain. Those two things together produce an unusually good market in outdoor equipment, much of it sold by people leaving on posting.
The city is easy to drive with generous parking, and the mountains are close enough that outdoor gear is often being collected on the way to use it. Altitude is worth noting for anything sealed or pressurised.
On outdoor gear, ask its age as well as its condition. Anything load-bearing has a service life, and altitude and UV here age fabric and webbing faster than the same gear would age at sea level.
Colorado Springs, in Colorado, has around 480,000 people, which means a steady local market where the usual things move reliably and the unusual ones are worth listing with a wider radius in mind. Denver, Aurora and Fort Collins are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Colorado Springs
USPS, UPS and FedEx all cover the country. USPS Ground Advantage is normally cheapest for anything under a few pounds in weight; above that the gap narrows quickly.

Put in the description

- For direct drive, which freehub body is fitted and whether a cassette is included
Heavy and compact, so weigh it before quoting postage. Direct drive units especially are dense — collection is often the sensible route.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
