Default question?

What is a good way to find out pricing for my used parts?????
I have a ton of C1 parts in perfect condition but haven't found a way to come up with a reasonable price?

I'd look for similar parts on Ebay and Craigslist and get an idea of what the market currently is but you know what they say "it's worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it" May be worth nothing to one guy and a lot to another.

As stated, go to Ebay. Check each of your items in the Completed Listings Only section. This will give you the amounts they were sold for or bid to without selling. This is the current value. Just checking the current listings can be misleading, as some items are overpriced, and do not sell, and other items sit at a low number, and then shoot up in the last 30 seconds.

Odd as it sounds, I usually price my parts at what I'm willing to let it go for. And I'm always surprised that I underestimate the value but content when I get that payment. You'll be surprised at what some people are willing to pay for something that you don't need and might not ever use. Can I interest you in some 1958 Cadillac Fleetwood 60 Special parts from a car that I haven't owned for 20 years ?
