    Check out the actual selling prices on the 2 large gun auctions. Quality of magazines will make great difference in prices. The 30 round SKS magazines are useless turds that never function correctly, because of this they are hard to sell. If your carbine magazines are original U.S. military they would be worth more then civilian repros. Also be aware that there are State and City laws regulating the sale of Hi-Cap mags. Be careful where you ship them, to stay out of trouble.

    Those are "MAGAZINES" sir...Not to be confused with "CLIPS" which may be used to load some rifles, that do not take a "box magazine".

    It depends on who made the magazines. If Ruger Factory, also WHEN they were made as in pre or post ban.

    But best way to get most for them, put them on the auction side.

    If you want to get what they're worth, your best option is to put them up for auction. One example: It looks like you have 30 round M1 Carbine magazines. If these are true US military magazines, they're worth quite a bit since nobody has them anymore. I realize that an auction and shipping can be a pain, but it's either that or accept pennies on the dollar for what you have.

    It may take as much as 2 weeks to get your money from an auction if you're in a pinch, that could be a factor. AR mags have gotten cheaper lately and Mini 14 mags are lower than they have been in the past. As mentioned the carbine mags are your higher value items so don't lump them all together-sell them 3 or 4 per auction if you go that way.

    You will get practically nothing if you list your mags on GB with cellphone photos. Buyers want clear, well lit close ups; if I can't clearly see the manufacturer's mark on the spine of a carbine mag, I won't buy it.

    and you need to get some light on the subject. take some better photos before you post it on your auction. outdoor light is the best for a crappy camera.
