I am trying to figure out what is the best way to sell all my surplus parts? I want to break even at least.

This is what I have, without pictures could I get some ideas on what I should list them at.

1) US WWII M1 Garand Stock Metal Set USGI
Front HG Ferrule, Front HG Spacer, Lower Band & Pin, Rear HG Band, Complete Stock Ferrule, Butt Plate, Rear Sling Swivel, with screws for both, VG, Almost NOS Condition. Nice Set

2) US M1 Garand Gas Cylinder with Stacking Swivel and Front Sight
Still in Wrap, I believe it is post war

3) US M1 Garand Gas Cylinder, World War 2,

4) M1 Garand Receiver parts Springfield SA
Included is the follower rod and spring, bullet guide, op rod catch assembly, follower assembly, follower arm and follower arm pin.

5) M1 Garand Stock Set
With metal, no stamps or cartouches, very tight lock up, small arsenal repair, would say Service Grade or better

6) M1 Garand Stock Set Tiger Stripped
No Metal, nice tiger stripping, has a rack number on the stock. A small surface crack on the front or rear hand guard does not go all the way through.

7) M1 Garand Post War Sa Trigger Housing Complete
High end field grade to low end service grade condition

8) SA-19 Bolt Complete

9) Sa-18 Bolt Complete

10) SA Operating Rod D35382 9 SA Modified

11) SA 12-52 Barrel ME 2, TE 3, and bright shinny bore very little wear

12) SA 2-55 Barrel ME 1, TE 2, and bright shinny bore very little wear

I am not sure if I should sell them all by themselves of do a parts kit. Thank you for your advice and suggestions.

100% no question you will get most money selling one piece at a time - probably double.

Love it or hate it, you get the most money from ebay just about every time

Damm it I hate EBay fees. Guess I will try that this weekend then, or today when I get home.

You can buy a clip latch and a receiver and build a rifle. But if you want the money, Sean's suggestion is the best one.

Good detailed pictures and descriptions make parts sell for top dollar. That and the condition needs to be very ggod
There is a flood of bolts out there now so common bolts with finish wear dont sell well

I need a gas cylinder for my 6 digit SA. The one I currently have has no bayonet lug or stacking swivel.
