  What are the condition of each set? You can sell them on eBay if your looking for a fast sale, or BrickLink for a slower sale. On BL, you might get more money.

  Does each have its original box?

  All sets are complete. They all come from a home where Lego is played with. Some byte marks (minimal). Imperial Shuttle Instructions have no front/back cover (no minifig instructions) and TIE Fighter and Y-wing has a removed and tattered front/back and a removed middle section. Both removed parts still readable and are still included. All the other instructions show wear on the edges depending upon age but still bound. None of these sets have their original box. V-19 Torrent is missing stickers (I might BL them).

  I also thought I should include these:
  7103 Jedi Duel (complete, excellent instructions, no box)
  7113 Tusken Raider Encounter (same as above)
  7153 Jango Fett's Slave I (Complete. Jango's head has a few nicks in it. Boba's head has a tiny spot where his paint was chipped, same goes for Jango's helmet. Instructions are missing front/back cover so no minifig instructions. no box)

  Hmmm. Looks like you have a bunch of things wrong with a bunch of sets. As a collector, I personally would have no interest. Most of the sets, if they were in good condition, aren't on the top of peoples list. The only value I see is Jango and Boba Fett and even they have issues. I would sell Slave I by itself and sell the rest as one "played with lot" and hope for the best.

  Were they plugged into a USB port or something?

  lol
  
  
  It sounds like you have some rough sets here. Get on eBay, check completed auctions, and look for items like yours that have sold (no box, but 100% complete). Then knock off 11%, because that is the fees eBay will charge you, and then a bit more because of the poor shape your items are in. That will get you the number you can expect to see if you were to put it up for auction on eBay (you final profit without fees and such).

  I think it would be best if I were to clarify that the bite marks (I guess I couldn't blame old English or European spelling on that one :P) are on pieces that can be easily BL-ed for pretty cheap being as most of them are common ( except for the minifigs in 7153 which might be worth BL-ing anyway).
  
  So generally these could potentially be excellent condition sets, with instructions, no box. So if it were currently that way what could you see the value be?

  @monkey_roo
  I never received your PM. Either that or I'm looking in the wrong place.

  ^^^Hm. That's actually a lot better than I thought for 7203, 7143, and 7119. I'm going to start checking for bite marks. If that raises the value it would be so worth it.

  ^Private feedback, new member, and the usual cheap 10188 sale. I'm calling scam.
