Unless a dictionary is a signed original or over 100 years old, it is not worth more than $50.

Are you showing a 2 volume set?
Since you have the box and describe the set to be in 'mint' condition, I would venture to say the set may be worth slightly more than just the normal sets shown on eBay and other sites.
You should consider listing it at a higher starting price - perhaps $50-60 with free media mail shipping. Always list as 'best offers considered' just to see if anyone actually shows an interest.

You do not have to accept an offer but should consider each one.
If you do not have any offers the first month, you should consider lowering the price unless you are in no hurry to sell.
Books are typically very slow sellers but maybe you will be lucky and have a quick sale.

The price of two volumes 1965 Funk & Wagnalls Standard Dictionary International Edition is $27.13 www.ebay.com/.../133457045223 Condition not very good.

You have two volumes, the original box, very good condition.
I think the price is about $40-50.

I think the price is about 50 $

I found the second volume of Funk & Wagnalls standard dictionary of the English language Paperback 1982 for $ 19.59 www.amazon.com/.../0894340298Cover?tag=thrif06-20 (Affiliate Link) has normal wear, there is a slight water mark, there is a little mold on the first 4 pages in that corner, the inside of the book is clean and perfect besides that issue.
