Default Need Pricing advice - Irish notes

First, I'm not a dealer (or even a serious collector) of banknotes. I did
get my hands on a few dozen pre-coin, pre-Euro uncirculated Irish One Pounds
from last year of issue (1989) and have been selling them on Ebay. The
prices I've been getting range $4.26 - $15.00. The average is around
$7.50-$8.00.

Now someone has asked me to quote sequential serial number lots of 5x and
10x. I certainly have that, and my biggest sequence is around 50. The
problem is, I have no clue as to how to price this. A simple question is:
does a 10x sequential lot get a premium (as a tough to get item on obsolete
notes) or a quantity discount? Assuming the "base price" for 10 is
10x$7.50=$75... what's reasonable to charge? Is there a "catalog price" for
these? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

Say your getting $7.50 each

10 sequence ask $100

Me personally if I got $80 for 10 I would sell
unless any fancy serial numbers

I know some dealers/ collectors like running numbers but I can not see
any premium with standard s/n something like 1234567 then 2345678
same series is rare

I collect world notes and have got serial numbers from the same series
such as 100000 001000 000100

Hope my advice/ info helps


yours
