Default Price advisory please

I'm looking at selling a few things and I have been trying to gague the appropriate prices via our for sale section but I haven't been able to determine a consistant price point.

One, I've got gray leather sport seats from my '97, about 50k miles on them and minimal wear, just some normal creases on the seat from use. I was thinking maybe 600+ shipping for those? (Too much, too little?)

Two, Chrome C5 Z06 wheels just about perfect condition 2x17 and 2x18 stock sizes, with NITTO 555's about 50%/30% left. Thinking 400?

Three, carpets- thinking about changing to black so I'd have front and rear carpet sections pulled out. No clue what they are worth. Even bother selling?

I don't necessarily need to-the-cent amounts, but I just want to see if I'm in the reasonable ballpark for each, and looking for any suggestions

Thanks guys!

You should certainly be able to get the $400 for the wheels.
Good luck.

Just a guess here, but I'd say the seats would be worth more in the $400-425 or so range. I know I sold my stock seat skins back in 2002when they only had about 11K miles on them and they were in excellent shape, and only got $400. You might want to check the Parts for Sale section and see if there are any other sets for sale to get an idea of what they are asking.
