While there may not be the best spot for such, I'd rather not use the Classifieds to discuss pricing. Instead, its format is almost strictly listings that are for Selling or Buying.

I think doing a quick research by looking through our Classifieds, and other Marketplaces, to get an idea of a price would be best. The person who has the parts probably knows what they'd like to get and that can be weighed against what they're seeing similar parts list for. Then set a price, list the parts, and if someone's interested then they will make an offer.

If this was a car, it would be slightly different.

I thought researching the classifieds and marketplaces would give me an idea of a price, nope, did that before I asked the question. The person that has the parts, me, only wanted to find a fair price for both buyer and seller because I'm not seeing similar parts listed.. These are parts that I bought from the dealer 20-25 years ago and have decided that I would rather have the real estate back in the garage that they are occupying.

Agreed with GarageToys. If they're NOS parts and parts that aren't on the market, then it may have some relevancy to this section and you've already presented the topic. Go ahead and post your question here.
