Wanting to sell speakers but don’t know how to price them......


I am thinking of selling a pair of B&W 804S; either that or my 803S.

The 804S: one is pristine, the other has a small chip in the back and a small blemish where it was bumped. I’d rate them at 8/10.

The 803S: both are pristine.  Overall 9.5/10

I’ve looked online for comparable examples but could not find any. It is currently January 2019.

I’d appreciate any feedback. :D

First question I would ask is 'original boxes and packing in perfect condition? Without that stuff, the speakers value drops another 15%... Beat up boxes for big items... still drop it 5% easily.
If the op is in no hurry to sell, then listing them at 60% of list (with perfect boxes) would be my suggestion. And after 30 days no sale, drop to 50%.  another month 40%     
Speakers are one of those things most folks do NOT want to ship a long distance. So usually fewer responses to ads anyway. Where I would buy a preamp from 1500 miles away, No way would I buy speakers at that distance.      
A plus is your speakers are common, that is also a minus. Plus because more folks interested, minus because more for sale. 
I agree looking up the prices of others for sale is possible.
