My philosophy on selling:  (unless part is no longer available)

Price is percentage of retail
New part - never been used, still in package = 67-75%
Used Part - in same condition as new = 60-67% (i.e. can't really tell it
isn't new)
Used Part - in same functional condition as new = 50-60%
Used Part - generally functional but definitely used = 40-50% (may need some
minor refurbishment)
Used Part - Needing repair to be functional = 33-40%
Used Part - Needing complete restoration to be functional = 25-33%
Used Part - Anything else = 0-25% (Don't ask me what this means)

(Of course - philosophy on buying is quite different  :^)

>I would suggest looking in a Moss Motors or Victoria British Parts Catalog,
determine its "as new" price, then take a percentage off for the
conditoin
it is in.  That way, you can justify to him why you are asking a certain
price.

Hi List!
        Question: Would any one care to respond to "What percentage off" you
should take, "for the condition it is in"?
