If the II is in good condition (it sounds like it is) it might bring
$200-$400+ on eBay (depending on the rabidity of the bidders that week).

Similarly, a Red book in good condition can be expected to bring $50-
$100.

The monitor is sort of a wash, since shipping will usually cost as much
or more than what a bidder will bid, and there is some justifiable fear
of damage in shipping.  Local sales are much better for monitors.

The Applesoft ROM card is about $10-$30 (Integer would be more), the
16K card is $10-$20, and the joysticks are $10-$20 depending on the
manufacturer and condition.

In a lot, the price would be determined by the Apple II, with about
a $50-$100 bonus for the Red book and the rest.

Separately, you'd get a little more, but have to deal with a half dozen
bidders, separate packing and shipping, etc.
