I have no knowledge of the specific peices. A reasonable approach
would be to price each item at 1/2 the original new price, somewhat
less if active divers rate the item inferior and/or unsafe. A bit more
if it is rated outstanding by experienced divers, or you got a large
discount when you made the purchase. You may be able to get 2/3ds
price for the fins and snorkel as their condition is quite apparent
while even the most experienced diver can not be sure the other items
are completely safe and reliable, even by using them in a test dive.
If shiping is paid by the buyer, your prices need to be about that
much lower. Obviously all benefit if you can find a buyer in your
community. Any items manufactured before 2001 needs to be discounted
another 10% to 20%. Generally the buyer will discount the 45 dives as
believable, but not necessarily the truth.  You should be willing to
accept about ten percent less than your asking price if the buyer is
waving cash under your nose and is buying several items.   Neil
