Pool Cue IDs and Values, Found in Attic After 20 Years
I would like to identify and value these nine pool cues.
They were found in the attic after 20+ years.

These appear to be almost all single-piece pool cues, i.e., house cues which seem to be well used.
It appears one may be a shorter pool cue for kids or pool rooms with little space or tight angles around the pool table in certain areas.
You could sell them all as a bundle for someone to fix or paint, but not for very much money.

Agreed. They're low-end pool cues in very rough shape.
Here are a few notes on the cues from right to left, numbered in the photo here:
- The one-piece Valley "Standard" pool cue on the right is probably your best one, though still well under $20.
- The next three (as well as the one 3rd from the left) appear to be all the same brand, though I can see the logo sticker is worn off so I can't place the brand. Pretty much worthless in the condition they're in. They might be worth $10 to $15 each with new tips and ferrules, assuming they are perfectly straight.
- The Sportcraft cue, model 01143, is a low-end import brand that would have either been sold in big-box stores of the day (and similar in value and quality to the cues you might find in Walmart today) or came with a poor-quality pool table sold in one of those same stores. They're of no interest or value to a serious pool player.
- The "Plyflex" pool cues are of similar origin as the Sportcraft ones. I believe there are bow & arrow sets, and a fishing rod line bearing the same name. Again, of no interest to the serious pool player, and they're of little-to-no value.
As @user1711021651 mentioned, your best bet to unload them might be to sell them as a lot, but you probably won't get anything over $30-$40 give-or-take.
