How much to ask?

If I wanted to sell some thing locally and I wasn't sure of the going value, I would post it to craigslist.org in your local section, place a price I would like to get and simply add.. "or best offer". You probably won't get top dollar, but it would be the easy way to go in such a case.

Since these thing are unknown condtion, I'd say for quick sale you'd be looking at $35-$60 for the 2000's and maybe $40-$70 if you sold the 128 as a lot with the floppy drives, paddles and other various bits. Auctions would probably bring a bit more, but then there's shipping and all that trouble.

I think you're being a bit low on the estimates there for eBay though....

Yes , posting untested equipment on craigslist is normally going to bring less than it would on an ebay auction. On ebay you never know how it's going to end though. One week an item goes for $20. At another time when the right people are looking and bidding, the same item, same condition goes for twice or more as the previous item. But you do get a bigger potential audience on ebay to up the price.

As my own example, I saw a CPU card sell on ebay for ~$350. 2-3 months later I tried to sell my exact same card on craigslist for $225 (if memory servers) and couldn't get a buyer at all. There may always be a serious gap between the top theoretical value of your item, and what will it actually sell for this month.
