Nickels for brass?

So I found around 200-250 spent 30--06 casings and a small mix of .38 and some .303 shells in the closet. I hate to throw them out. Anyone know if I can fetch a little cash for this stuff? What's it worth at the corner gun shop?
Thanks.

a retailer won't pay more than 1 or 2 cents each.
What condition are they? Are they still in boxes or just dumped in a pile? Do you know if they are once fired or more? Are they all the same head stamp?
I'm in Long Beach. I could probably use the '06 cases if they are reloadable and all the same stuff.
The metal junk places will pay about 50 cents a pound or so.

Most of the 30-06 is PMC and American Eagle in their orginal boxes and fired once -- by me. The .303 and .38s are rolling around and mixed together. But there's not very much of it. A few handfuls at best. The pistol brass is all factory, fired once. The .303 -- I don't remember if it's factory or Mil surplus. But everything in the box is is good shape.
