I've sold a lot of gear through KEH. They will quote you a price on line and
you ship for free. I think the prices are very fair.

Your 85mm lens is 1:1.8 as it refers to the largest aperture. I’m not a
Nikon shooter, so I don’t know a lot about the adaptability of their lenses,
I do know some are used by Canon folks, but if I recall correctly it is more
the 20mm and macro lenses that have perceived value. What is enhancing the
value of older lenses are the new Sony high-end mirrorless camera bodies
that can take just about anything.
Starting with eBay is a good idea. For general sites, Craigslist is also
good. You can search larger cities to get more pricing data for your lenses.
KEH is the largest national used gear dealer. They both buy and sell, so
check out their stuff, especially the condition ratings and associated
prices.
Also many Nikon user sites such as Nikonions have online forums for buying
and selling. I use these kind of sites for my own buying or selling. The
pricing is usually fair. The rub is that you are considered more trustworthy
if you have a bit of a posting history.
Good luck.

Pricing advice?
I'm clearing out 10 years worth of photo work, plus old cameras at my
studio this weekend--20729 87th Ave SW, Sat-Sun 10-4.
And I've got a Nikkormat film camera with the following lenses:
35mm Nikkor-O-C Auto 1:2
Nikkor 85mm 1:18
Nikkor-Q Auto 200mm 1:4
Anyone have an idea what the whole shebang might be worth? I see the body
pricing around $30-50 on ebay, but it's hard
to know about the lenses, since I'm reading that they can still be adapted
(even though not auto-focus) to current digital cameras.
They run around $100 and more on ebay, but I know nothing about how to
differ between certain types. For example, the 85mm on
ebay is a 1:8, not a 1:18.
Also got my original camera from when I was 12 - a Yashica 44 twin-lens
reflex! Not worth much, but lovely for people who collect vintage cameras
as art pieces (don't even know if it still works).
All are welcome, mostly selling out tons of greeting cards from my original
digital printer, before I went to offset in San Francisco.
Thanks for your help!
