Default Used Brake Components, - Value?

I'm changing out the wheels, tires, and brakes on my '02 coupe. I'll probably sell all the OE components. Wheels are the OE 17 & 18 five spoke polished aluminium. Tires are Michelin Pilot Sport ZP with 3/4 tread (stock OE sizes). The brakes rotors are in great shape since only 22k on the odometer. The calipers are dirty, but no leaks. Pads have plenty life left.

The problem is, I have no idea what any of these components (wheels, tires, calipers, rotors) are worth. Any insight would be appreciated.

Shoot. This was meant for the C5 forum. Can someone move it? Or tell me how?

The problem with stock rotors is shipping cost. Cast iron ain't too light, and they don't want to fit in flat rate boxes. Factory '02 rotors, so from Brazil, yes? I see new GMs going for in the $90ea/front & $67ea rear -- but new does not necessarily mean as good as, since so many new parts are from China now. ACDelco (not quite OEM GM) China sourced rotors from Amazon ran me around those prices per pair delivered. If it were me, that's where I'd be thinking.

If you got anywhere above $600 for everything you listed I'd be surprised. Issues are;

1) No one is going to want to pay more than $500 for the wheels. You'd probably get offers for much less especially since the tires are near end of life.

2) C5 anything-brakes aren't worth much compared to the fact that most C6 hardware swaps over, is much better, and can be sourced easily without having to deal with all of those shipping costs per above. At best you would need to find someone locally that is say looking to adapt some cheap Corvette brake hardware (many do; rodders, kit car builders, etc) and hope they take the calipers (you changed the calipers also, did I read that right?...) and rotors off your hands.
