Bump for answer
what would be the price for a set of T-Tops to
Move right now?
Move fast at a reasonable price?
Move at a good profit in less than a fortnight?
Move if I'm willing to wait for some goober who wants original T-Tops?

It depends on year, cover plating color, condition, whether or not they are a set, accessories included (screws, springs, rings), etc.
As a seller, for a super clean set with accessories, you should know that some people might spend 500 bucks, and ask accordingly. For a loose, uncovered pickup alone, in moderate condition, you might get under 100 bucks. For earlier models, you might get more.

$800 is also OK, if it's a nice model in nice shape. Better to keep the original pickups and replace them if you ever sell, than it is to pocket $300. IMO. It's almost always a bad idea to fully separate original parts from an old guitar, even if you will be modding. Just put them in a drawer and let them sit as the guitar appreciates while you play it with the Duncans (or whatever you put in).

In my opinion, it's almost always a bad idea to not do exactly what you want with a guitar. I'm a player - not a collector. That Ace Frehley Budokan has been played in bars...

My post does not suggest otherwise. I simply said it's a good idea to keep the original parts with a "vintage" guitar. You're talking $300; it isn't much.
