Default What price should I set for 2 Cayman seats?

Take outs from my race car. The seats are option code 342 (heated front seats) in black leather (seating surfaces). Almost as good as new.
Came out of a 2009 S with 8300 miles.
Not looking to maximize price, just move them on to someone that can use them.
How much should I ask for?
Thanks in advance for input.

Are these the basic 2 way sport seats like mine has or are they something fancier like the 8 or 12 or whatever -way seats?

I swapped out my Cayman S seats for GT3 seats and listed them on Ebay for $1200. Sold them for $1000. Mine were Desert Sand, Blacks might be more popular. It cost a lot to ship them.

Thank you, Bill - I'd be happy to get the same price.
Yes, I expect expensive to ship. How did you box yours for shipping?

Sounds like I should be asking $1100-1200, hoping to get $1,000.
Thanks for all of the responses.

I do
If you could pm your email address I'll send the pics.
I'd like them to go to a Rennlist member.
Thanks

Here you go; $1,000 for both firm plus actual cost of boxing and shipping.
Seats are in excellent condition. Previous owner weekend driver 8300 miles, we removed them and replaced with racing seats. I cleaned and treated with Lexol before these pics but it hardly needed it.
You might notice the depressions in the cushions. That is from storing the seats folded and should rebound.
Please let me know if you are interested before I put them on eBay or similar.
Thanks; any questions let me know.

No worries; I was kind of wondering why you were interested!
