It really depends on the supply and demand in your area. The petstores here won't buy mice or rats from private sellers but I found a breeder/petstore supply store that will buy mice/rats and their price is based on demand, so it fluctuates. Haven't sold any mice to them yet as I have been able to sell them directly to snake owners in my area. The rat weanies were $2 a piece so far but the owner did say it can fluctate as low as $1.50 to as high as $2.50, depending on how many she needs any giving week or month.
Checking your yellow pages for petstore supplers or wholesalers may find a similar place. Or, asking at the petstores where they get their stock and how much they are willing to pay, may be the best bet. Another way of going about it is finding how much they sell mice to the public and offer about to one third of that value. (ie if they sell the mice for $2 as a pet or frozen as food, offer to sell yours for $.75 to $1.00)
