I have some range pickups I want to get rid of since I don't shoot them anymore. They have been cleaned in a wet tumbler.

Mostly it is .45, 38 and maybe some 223 (I have stupid amounts of it that I can probably get rid of a good portion of).

Question is what is the typical fair price per brass nowadays (not including shipping)?
 
For a refernce point, you could always check what commercial suppliers (Budget, Black Sheep, Higginson's, etc...) charge for their once-fired brass and price yours accordingly.

That's a great start, and the EE though I'd give that one a lot more thought before using someone else's price.
 
Typically once fired and matched, hard to find/expensive rifle brass in quantities big enough to bother with might be worth 1/2 of new price.

Random range pick-ups in common and handgun calibers are almost not worth the effort to pick up. Thats why they were left in the first place.
 
spend a few minutes on the ee, anything bumped a few times is overpriced so that gives you an idea.

what others are asking for it does not matter much if buyers are not willing to pay that much..
 
You have to determine what it is actually worth to someone else. Reference off a comparable product on the EE and undercut to make it sell. Shipping is usually the deal killer as others have mentioned. I am so focused on large volume commercial / industrial orders that you don't have to worry about competing against me ;)
