Question would be, what's average value of most dies? I'll probably nit want to keep all of em. Excelllent condition. Have about 20 sets.

Look up the current selling price by caliber, manufacturer and type. Consider 50% of new as being a reasonable price for used dies. More if they look new or have seen very little use. People who reload their hunting ammo may never resize more than 100 cases over the lifetime of the die. 3-Gun shooters may run 10's of thousands of cases through their dies. RCBS dates their dies by year of manufacture.
Rare calibers cost more, both new and used because the demand is limited and therefore more costly to set-up for manufacturer and retain on shelves for eventual sale. Common semi-auto calibers and handgun rounds sell at a premium only when there is a panic in the market place. ,223, .308, .45acp, 9mm, etc. were in high demand only a few years ago. They are common and available again at this time.
Keep any carbide pistol dies if you have or are going to buy a firearm in that caliber. Sell any steel handgun dies, they require lube when resizing.
