A lot depends on whether you're expecting retail or wholesale prices, or something in between. Also, a lot depends on the quality and cut of the stones as well as their size. How about advertising on Craig's List? You might, before you seriously try to sell them, ask a jeweler in the area for an estimate of the value of each, wholesale as well as retail, along with the size and description of the cut of each. You'll want an estimate of the jeweler's charge for the information you need up front. He/she won't do it for free. One major thing to remember is that loose stone, natural or man made, aren't nearly as valuable as set stones. The mountings are frequently what make the stones and the value of same to soar. It would be very helpful to have the info I'm mentioning on the stones before you get seriously involved in trying to sell them.
I hope this helps. I made and sold my handcrafted jewelry for a number of years. I wish you luck.

In all honesty, Ebay is a great tool for selling items! The buyer will even pay shipping charges.

Consult a jeweler, he or she could help you evaluate your collection. You could sell them on Ebay if you wanted to.
