I have a couple sets of Ignitions and steering locks with keys. What are they worth? and yes they are matched #s. Also what about fuel petcocks not rebuilt? and rebuilt?

Clean ignition switches & matching locks with original keys can go from $45-$100 on eBay.
Clean and corrosion free rebuilt petcocks can fetch $90-$120 Original petcocks that are rebuildable $55-$85
Petcocks with corrosion or white deposits basically $0

They are worth whatever you can get for them.
Sometimes they sell for a lot. Sometimes they don't. Depends on the pictures, functionality, your working, your feedback rating and your shipping terms. Spokes is on the high side - or those prices represent very good condition items.

Good point Smithers! Yes, the prices I estimated are for fully functional, original keys or componants and in good condition. I base my numbers on seeing ebay listings over a 5 year period and what I have sold the same stuff for. Any deviation in condition brings less money. I remain corrected to the fact that actual value for these item is what they sell for.

I have seen some parts bring in some good money - but they have to be in top condition. MAKE SURE to take 3-4 close pictures to show the details and you will surely get twice the money than if you just take once cruddy picture. I have sold some things for some surprising amounts of money on eBay!
Too bad they keep raising the fees more and more but that's another story (rant!). hehe
