100 pieces of new Starline is about 30 bucks after tax and shipping, so once fired is probably half of that? Maybe 60% if they’re still bright and shiny?
I’d guess 10 cent per dirty a little more if they’re clean.
To be honest, I've seen people pay new-from-Starline prices for clean once-fired brass. I don't get it. But then Starline doesn't always have their brass in stock.
I'd say start at 10 cents per.
It would also help if you can state in your ad that any Hornady brass was checked for length. Hornady sells some of their 357 mag ammo with FTX bullets that require the brass to be trimmed shorter than normal. (They also do this with 45/70, and I think 44mag as well).

Fun fact about starline. If it says backorder then it will ship the same day. I heard that so I back ordered 357,45lc, and 45/70 and the next day I work up to 3 shipping numbers. Not sure the logic behind it but it’s true.
I *think* if it says backordered, it generally means they have a scheduled run for whatever caliber.
You're basically going on the waiting list.
I've heard stories of it shipping anywhere from next day to next month.

That has been my experience.
I've seen instances where Starline had "no backorder" for a certain caliber, but Midway had them in stock. Midway often sells in different quantities, like 100 pieces instead of Starline's minimum 500. Midway just orders a large quantity and then repackages them.
I have had backordered orders that came very quickly and have also had backordered orders take months. I recently got a box of 30 Luger brass that I had ordered last fall. I have always assumed that they ship an order when the cases are available to ship. I, too, have found Starline cases from other vendors when they were listed as backordered on the Starline site.

I think I have some NIB .41 if you are in a pinch. Bought the big box at the time . . .
Thanks, have a decent stock of once fired, but if I run short will reach out. Please feel free to do the same if you come up short one day.
Currently, Starline shows 45-70 brass available on backorder (the brown dot). I haven't seen that in many months.
Yea, it's gone now.
