    Caliber of said brass will help ascertain a fair price for your excess.

    Starline still makes it. You could always go to their site to get an idea what new brass goes for and discount the price appropriately from there.

    Donate to someone in need. Help a Vet who may have the 30 carbine.

    Shipping cost is a killer unless done local.

    Break it into multiples of 100 or 500 and offer it here. If you want to move it, price it a little less than what the going rate for the same fired cases are selling for online.
    When I list stuff here, I price slightly below what others ask and almost everything sells within two days. Members get a good deal, I get some money for something that is just taking up space and I'll never use again. Price it at retail, and it will continue to sit in your garage.

    the internet says 60 - 65 cases per pound.

    60 x 18 lbs. = 1080 cases

    1080 x @$.24ea. = $259..20

    If you sold for $.12ea. x 1080 = $129.60 + $21 for a med. flat rate box. ($151 for 1080 pcs.)

    1000 pcs. of NEW Starline brass is $.28 ea. ($284.50) (free shipping)

    What would you sell them for?
