Selling off whole collection of RIFs, help with appraisals appreciated

[AaronAsh]

Unfortunately health means I'm done with airsoft, so will be selling off my collection over the next few months. Generally I'll follow the 2/3 retail price rule as all of my stuff has been well looked after and works well, but I do have a few pieces that are unusual or rare I'd appreciated folks input on. I'll list it all in case people notice things I should be pricing in any particular way. Here's my whole collection:

• Tokyo Marui Skorpion AEP
  • 4 mid cap mags + 1 drum mag
  • Upgraded spring for roughly 285 fps
  • original Czech holster and magazine pouches for everything
  • real steel folding stock
  • Original box
• Stoner 63 AEG
  • 1 magazine
  • Has both the original and railed fore-ends
  • Drilled neatly for the top optics rail
• Northeast Sten MkIIS (the suppressed one) GBB
  • 5 magazines
  • This is the first generation model
  • Original box, even for each mag!
• E&L AK105 Essential AEG
  • ~3 mid cap magazines
  • Has an upgraded tactical selector lever and magazine release, and a neat East German low-light ironsight
  • Original box
• S&T SMLE spring powered
  • 1 midcap magazine
  • I've stripped the wood and done it in a proper, less plastic finish
  • The cocking indicator no longer functions
  • Original box
• King Arms M1A1 paratrooper carbine GBB
  • Converted to green gas (will include original CO2 bolt)
  • 1 original CO2 magazine and 5 30-round green gas magazines
  • Also have a full (non-folding) stock for it
  • Both stocks are real wood, I've stripped, stained and oiled them correctly
  • Original box
• PTS Masada GBBR (in tan colour)
  • 5 magazines
  • Have both long and short barrels, and fore ends
  • Have a heavy recoil kit, but not fitted
  • Original box
• Umarex VFC HK 416C AEG
  • ~5 midcap magazines
  • Original box
• WE XM177E2 GBB
  • 1 x 20 round mag, 4 x 30 round mags
  • Modded with a triangular handguard and retractable stock to look like a Colt 607
  • Custom marked by KY airsoft with "Colt Commando" markings
  • Original box, even for the mags!
• GHK AKMSU GBB
  • This is the folding stock short AK with weird thumb hole foregrip
  • 4 x 30 round magazines
  • This is from GHK's dodgy period, but it works - FPS jumps up and down a bit and its not very accurate
  • Original box
• Webley replica MKVI Service Revolver CO2 6mm BB
  • I think 12 rounds for it
  • Battlefield finish
  • This is the early model that doesn't have the fake safety catch
  • Comes with RAF holster
  • Original box
• WE Mauser M712 GBB pistol
  • 1 x 10 round, 3 x 20 round magazines (green gas)
  • Comes with reproduction wooden stock and correct 712 grips
  • I've selectively polished the finish so it more closely matches the original
  • Lightly weather

I used to quite actively buy and sell RIFs on this site, but wouldn't mind a few pointers on how it works now. Is Parcelforce still the best choice for posting RIFs? Normally I use Paypal G&S for payment, and require active UKARA for defence.

Pics would help, but I won't offer any input to the prices as I fully intend on PM'ing you about some of them.

The pistols sound interesting to me.
Parcelforce is probably your best bet for the larger parcels. The pistols would be fine by tracked 24 or 48.
PayPal G and S is a good idea if you don’t know the buyer, but you can get a good idea from their feedback score. Unfortunately all of us lost our previous scores when the forum was revamped.
A number of legal defences are accepted by most shops now, ask for proof, they all provide a membership card either physical or an online card.
