TRD headers for 3.4

So I bought a donor 4x2 01Tacoma for my swap. It's loaded with some aftermarket goods. Unfortunately most of which isn't compatible with my 94 4x4. Shortly after bringing the rig home, some research taught me that the headers won't fly with my truck. So I'd like to sell them and get some coin towards a custom set. The thing is I don't know what is a good price to ask for a set of used TRD headers? I seen that there's a guy on eBay selling (trying) an unopened, in box set for $700. So maybe half that? I don't want to give them away, nor do I want to ask way to much. I know they're no longer in production so they might be of value, of course to the right person. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, but three potential problems.
1- pics i have are still on my camera and ive never tried to post a pic on here before...
2- Headers are still on the engine which is still in the truck. (Possibly not after this weekend?)...
AND 3- Im not currently in Denver. Not even CO. And i cant say for sure when ill be back out that way to even visit...

Ill work on figuring out how to use the picture host sites and get something up for people to see.

SIDE NOTE- If it matters, the engine only has 55k on it. BUT idk if the headers are stock?...

The truck is sitting up at my pop's house. An hour from where im living. Planning to go up there this weekend and finish pulling the motor. So ill take them off and Ill be getting some better pics. Im gonna look some more for the rest of the pics...FYI i was told the truck had sat for 2 months before it was auctioned off. And the kid who owned it (and wrecked it) is in the Army so its been sitting around for most its life..

They look good normal wear from others I have seen, I'm no expert but it depends on how the gaskets look, they are some gasket kits on trd parts anywhere from 150-250. But if the gaskets are re useable idk man prolly worth more. Also interested in seeing how much rust is on them. They darken up and look red with normal wear but I have seen 1 dude that tack welded his back together because the cracked.

I can give a partial update. Got the motor pulled over the weekend. Ran into a problem getting the headers off. Surprisingly it wasnt rust The previous owner added ALOT of stuff himself. The Headers didnt come stock and who ever did the install prerounded the nuts. I went ahead a finished rounding two nuts off. I was able to get a few of the nuts off. A few came out stud and all. Im going to look into getting the right socket to remove the studs. It must be like and inverted Torqx looking thing?

I did snap a few more pics. The only thing that i seen that wasnt "normal" wear is a dent in one of the pipes.

I think everything else is pretty good...

And here is the best picture i had taken of the studs.

I know the pic is trash. Its not the camera, its a good one, its the fool behind it! I dont take the time to adjust to the right setting.
After I get the rest of the studs off ill add more pics, including some shots of the gaskets....

Does anyone out there have an idea of what these are worth???

Sorry to leave you hanging bro. Ive been out of town for work. Havent been back up to my pop's house since the day i took the last pics. I asked him not to mess with it but being retired he must have got bored and told me he got them off. I know thats not much of an update beneficial to you. Im headed back to KC wed. night and possibly going up to his place for the forth. Ill snap a few more pics, see what the gaskets look like, and try to find a part #. Ill let you know when i can! Happy 4th!

UPDATE!! Sorry for the delay. Took a whole photo shoot of these headers. Got the numbers, gaskets and the best pics of the dented area. First time trying to upload on the yotatech app. If it doesn't work ill go to the trusty laptop. Please someone tell me an honest price of what I should/can ask for these. As always thanks for any help.

ALSO-I can take more pics if anyone would like. Not really much not pictured lol, but let me know. FYI for those who might need to ask, the pink stuff is gasket maker. It can be picked or scraped off. I just didnt take to time to do so.
