Your thoughts on my possible pricing for my Garage Sale

You should probably lower the prices a bit. If you don't feel comfortable doing that on an item than it's not garage sale material, sell it online.

I tend to disagree... start asking high and people WILL haggle. It's a garage sale after all.

That being said... perhaps the computer is a bit overpriced? The gfx card is nice but the rest is a few years old. Is the monitor an LCD or a CRT? (This matters...) If CRT I would say you should still ask for the $150, but don't be dismayed if someone counteroffers with $100. If LCD, you could get the $150.
 
I'd either lower some of your prices on the PCs or remove them. Most people don't bring $150-$200 to a yard sale, and even if they would, those aren't really worth what you're asking. If I were you, I'd remove the PCs altogether and try to sell them on eBay/Craigslist. The rest of the prices range from pretty good to barely passable. I'd say to try to lower everything a little, I mean, this is a Yard Sale, not a CL ad.
 
-5.1 Logitech Pc speakers amazing sound about 4 years old. $20

These might be worth a bit more depending on what model number they are.

If they're z680s and in good condition, you could bump it up to $60-80 and try to get some techie to buy 'em.
