I would like to determine the value of a Noritake #7293 Rothschild complete service for 12. Straight from Japan in 1989 while my step-daughter was stationed in Okinawa. Any help would be appreciated.

Beautiful china.
It is not always easy to sell a large set as the shipping of this many pieces can be very costly and extremely difficult for the seller to pack properly as breakage is a big probability no matter how careful it is packed.
China can also be a very slow seller as modern younger generation is just not interested in 'formal' china.
To assess current value you will need to find sold listings (for sale listings are just prices a seller would like to receive for their items). Finding a sale with the exact same pieces as your set may not happen so you will need to look at close matches. Also, many sellers list their sets as 'pick up only' so they do not have to risk the dangers with packing and shipping.
You can check the sold listings on eBay to see what people are paying for similar sets; usually different number of settings/pieces.
Here are a couple of sets that sold recently:
This 12 place set recently sold for $175 - local pick up:

This 8 piece place setting sold for an unknown amount - best offer accepted so it could have been any amount under $600.

Here is a link to eBay's sold listings so you can check the different 'sets' that have sold and compare with your set:

You can also check current listings and place a watch on any listing to see if it sells:

You can also check with this company to see what they will pay for your set:
You'll see that placing a value on a 'set' is not easy as for sale and sold listings are high and low and you may have a 12 place setting but many times the extra severing pieces are what help to sell a set for more money.
If you list your set I would suggest you start with a higher price - even $600 - and have all offers considered and start with 'local pick up only'. Leave it posted for several weeks and if no offers received, lower the price and wait again.
You could try listing on Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, OfferUp and any other site you're familiar with.
