  Pretty nice pile of stuff but also pretty filthy. It will take some time and effort to get it cleaned so factor that in.

  maybe ask him what he wants for it?
  
  i got offered a bulk lot a couple years ago (friend of a friend) and they were only expecting £20 for it, I ended up giving them £80. I was happy with that price and they were over the moon!

  @alexwil he knows that Space Lego can go for a lot that's the problem.  He has said mates rates but don't want to go to high

  I'm with Alex...let the friend tell you what he wants first.  i dont see a problem even if he does know the value of space lego.  If too high for you, make a counter offer...or if not, as a friend, suggest ideas to help him get what he wants from it.  Suggest he cleans it up, organize it into 100% complete sets, and so on and so on....he might just drop his price for you

  He's got some good stuff. Really good actually and it might clean up really nicely, and it might all be complete. Even so, I would want to score this job lot for around £120 but definitely no more than £150. Actual estimate of value based on 918, 6970, a couple of ships I can see and three other models I know are worth about £40 each is somewhere around £450 (but not in this condition)... I'm ignoring boxes and assuming instructions. Just an opinion.

  Was it stored in an attic in the heat? I see a lot of browned white minifigs. How’s the clutch? Heat can affect that.

  Batt insulation is about $0.20 per square foot.  If you clear out those silly children's toys that are lowering the R-value of the attic floor, you should be looking at perhaps one roll.  Maybe 80 square feet - $20.00 or so.
  
  Seriously, I'd probably offer $100.00, given the condition, how they were stored and the time/energy to verify parts and track down any missing parts.  Never forget to value your time if you are planning to sell them!
