Default What are they worth to you?

The list below was posted earlier but I'd like to know what these
tapes are worth. I know that depends on the buyers interest, but just
generally, what would you pay for them, if you wanted them? I've
checked the price guides and looked at other sources, but I'm just
trying to get a general idea here. Thanks for your input. I'm not a
collector of email addresses so please reply on this group or off
group at http://lamplightmus.topcities.com/catalog.html
where there is a form where you can reply anonymously.

FOR SALE - The still-sealed tapes are in mint condition and the opened
ones are VG+. All, including lightly played, tapes have been kept
dust free at cool room temperature away from moisture. Will sell
individual tapes or entire collection, buyer pays postage. To make a
bid, send email to with "8 track" as the subject.
Thank you.

Lamp, There is no easy way to price a bunch of tapes like this, and
normally no one on here would even answer your question,because the
prices received vary so much at any given time. First of all, most of
them are easy listening tapes which are generally not desirable
because there are so many around, and not a big market. I usually only
buy them for parts. I have paid anywhere from 50 for a dollar, up to
25 to 50 Cents or even a buck each, if they had good pads and/or were
the type of carts I needed at the time.
Also you might find a person who was looking for a specific artist in
your list and would offer more. Even the more desirable tapes are not
going to bring anything more unless you run across some buyer willing
to pay more.
SO!!! Being that there is no price guide,(which would just be a guide
anyway)
we are back where we started!!!! I would put them on E-bay and see how
they fly. This is just one persons opnion!

The Sinatra and Beach Boys tape may bring a dollar each.

The rest I would not pay over 20 cents each for if buying in bulk for
parts, at the local thrift store. 10 cents each would be more like
it.

If those are listed at the right time on the 8-track heaven site, you
may sell a few more for $1 each, when net traffic is heavy and the
site is getting lots of hits.

But basically that lot has little (or no) value- unless of course some
of those are quads.

I'll give you a million dollars just to get me out of this stinking
