Hi,
I'm thinking about selling my full kiev kit ( jupiter 11 (135mm f4) ; jupiter 9 (85 f2) ; jupiter 3 (50 f1,5) jupiter 8m (50 f2), Helios 103 (50 f1,8 ), jupiter 12 (35mm f2.8) / and a Kiev 4a body from 1959 , good year of production ). How much do you think I should ask for? (everything from good to very good).

Don't do it...
at least, not like that.
You'll take a beating IMO. Follow this advice:
Sell piece-by-piece, buy in big lots.

True..."Buy Lots---Sell Pieces"
True..."Buy Lots---Sell Pieces"
One of my fundamental instructions in my eBay class.....
Or, how I turned a "lot" of Mamiya Press equipment, bought on Buy It Now purchased for $499, into $1200 cash and kept a $200 lens for myself. Twelve pieces in all, closed out in a "lot" by Adorama. Imagine that?

I agree. Sell the items individually - you should get a much better overall price than selling it as a whole kit. (In fact, I've made some nice profits by buying whole kits like that on eBay and breaking them up to resell individually, right back on eBay)
