  The Lyman's have sold on ebay for $13-50.
  The bonanza, $15

  Agree with DCS, but the Bonanza is missing its tray which is matched by weight to the scale. Without the tray, it will not work.
  
  I started out on a Redding similar to your Bonanza. No magnetic dampening and a very slow. Magnetic dampening was great when introduced, but auto and digital are all that's selling these days.
  Someone may want the Ohaus to verify a digital scale.

  The bonanza will work with any tray or pan that's what the nuts are for on the end to zero in scale. tks.hedge[:D]

  I bought a used Ohaus like yours for $15.75 last year when my digital scale crapped out on me.

  Ohaus makes those scales for a lot of folks, including Hornady, Lyman, and RCBS(Model 505). Midway is selling the RCBS 505 for just north of $90.00. As far as the Bonanza, I think you would be best to put it on the auction block if you want to sell it, as I think you could get well north of anything suggested here so far.

  I've always had trouble selling used reloading equipment. Even with quality stuff. Took me better than a year to off-load, a Dillon 550 B locally.
  
  For the actual fair market prices, folks are selling reloading equipment for on fleabay. I wouldn't be wasting my time with the scales. There not high dollar items any more. When decent quality Chinese digital scales can be had for under $30.
