I want to make a small post about a road frame we had donated.

Not sure what it is!
I want to list it in eBay, obviously I need to know what the thing is first.
We would appreciate your help.

Details of seatpost diameter and any frame number would help. Looks like a nice but generic mid-late 90s Taiwanese winter trainer frame, TIG welded from (most probably) Tange tubing.

It would make a lovely winter / commuter / audax / light tourer.

It's a 520 Reynolds tubing
Seat tube seems to be 27.0

Probably a generic shop frame. 520 is 525 when made under license in Taiwan. Essentially it's weldable 531 (CrMo not MnMo).

I'd guess you would get £30-50 for frame and forks. It's nicely detailed and functional but nothing exotic. For comparison I bought a scruffier 1979 Witcomb 531 frame & forks with pretty lugs on here for £25. It rides beautifully now built up.
