I don't understand the poll question, but for pricing, look at what they are currently going for on ebay. It's a buyer's market and they will sell for what they're worth, no matter how much you think you want to get.

It sounds like a nice kit, Mike. Why are you getting rid of it? It can't be for the money because film cameras like this are going for between $5 and $25 on eBay. The lenses fare somewhat better - approaching $100 for really nice ones - but very much less than you'd think they "should" go for.

As Larry said, it's a buyer's market. Now might be the time for you to INCREASE your lens collection for that Pentax rather than to sell it. It was a great camera once, and it's STILL a great camera. Hang on to it!
