    Ok, so after a thorough internet search (where I was surprised that the motors were consistently considerably more expensive than the drivers), here is what I came up with:
    M-2330-FH - 200 euros
    M-2330-XH - 200 euros
    M-2330-FH - 200 euros (without the gearbox)
    M-2348-FH - 275 euros (including the brake)
    SST-1500 - 120 euros each
    TG-540 - 50 euros each
    NC-540 - 50 euros

    SSt-3PS12-75 75V supply - unless someone buys everything and asks for it I'll keep it.

    Or 1500 euros for the lot. I would prefer selling everything together, this way the wiring looms that connect all the parts are included and I don't have to cut anything.

    All the motors have 8,000 counts/rev sensors attached.

    The prices are slightly below the average of the minimum and maximum I've found, I didn't go to the lowest price because I reckon these are in as good a state as an used servo can be, moving the small robotic manipulator they were subjected to minimal loads and they worked inside a machine that filtered the intake air for cooling, so no dust inside for the most part.

    What do you guys think?

    Good luck, I think the prices you're basing this on are from optimistic sellers with stock and no need to sell, I can buy a new obsolete Siemens VFD for my power hacksaw for £1000, or I can go for a new model from Siemens for £100 if I shop around and can wait.
    Check Zapp Automation's site to see what similar or higher spec drives and motors can be bought for new with warranty.

    You think that's too expensive? You're not a Model Engineer are you? :D

    That's why I am asking.

    Thanks for the link, cool store.
    These were the closest I could find:
    https://www.zappautomation.co.uk/smh...rvo-motor.html
    https://www.zappautomation.co.uk/fd4...vo-driver.html

    I couldn't find 8000 count per revolution servos, but that one is similar otherwise. These motors seem better, but the more modern drivers appear more flexible regarding I/O and probably have more modern software on the PC side. Still, a similar setup there would cost 2300 euros, which does indeed make my 1500 euros estimation a bit unreasonable. I reckon I'll put them on eBay for 800 euros, if it doesn't sell quickly I might just keep them.
