OK, so I'm assuming ya'll are on downtime for at least 8 weeks unless I hear different by 4pm Tuesday (1 Feb). At such time, I'l also resolve Mike's post above about taking stuff to Chinook Hunter (etc) unless somebody says differently.
GETTING THINGS FENCED
Silver necklace - will need appraisal by jeweler or fence/fixer
wicker man (need ID) - needs IDing by someone with assenseing
circlet with moving symbol (need ID) - needs IDing by someone with assenseing
red ring of orcharium (sp) - needs appraisal by fence/fixer or an itemcrafting mage
3 gold watches - needs appraisal by jeweler, fence/fixer, or similar
electronic key to mercury comet (need to retrieve car)
6 microdrones (need ID) - Easy to ID: the ID is on a plate on the underside. They are MCT Fly-spy microdrones (stock as per SR 25AE). Retail price on them is about $2,000, and they're easy to get ahold of; demand for them probably won't be especially high unless it's to the right guy at the right time.
gold and emerald ring - will need appraisal by jeweler or fence/fixer
cyberware (cranial microbomb) - 2 successes on 8-bit's Cybertechnology Knowledge Skill: It's a microbomb, designed to kill the bearer. You should expect somewhere in the neighborhood of $1,000-1,300 for it, possibly toward the lower end due to lack of demand. Selling it via legal channels is, of course, out of the question.
platinum ring - will need appraisal by jeweler or fence/fixer
5 silver credsticks - They have the following values:
1) 11,000
2) 14,000
3) 36,000
4) 20,000
5) 20,000
To find somebody to sell it to or appraise it, you need to take an item to a contact. Tell me what's going where, and I'll roll it out. If you don't have a contact for a given item, then you'll have to spend some time making social rolls to track somebody down. Your face will be unable to do ALL of these rolls (generally speaking, the person who's contact it is makes the rolls), but the face CAN spend time tracking somebody down to do appraisals or sales. This will also be ad-hoc'd to take longer than normal because you're trying to be stealthy about this - lying low and all that. The interval for tests is 24 hours, instead of 6 (SR, pg 312) due to these circumstances.
Otherwise, I'm assuming you're spending your time planning out your warehouse/safehouse, tracking down people to do the work, and having it actually done. This is going to take the VAST majority of your time (seriously, how many contractors who don't talk and deal in high-tech stuff are going to be willing to work next to a ghoul hangout, in the crappy part of town, or both?).
8-BIT TRACKING DOWN COMPUTER PARTS
-Response 6 Chip (Availability 16, 2 day interval). It took you 24 days (12 rolls) to track one down, but you finally manage to track a rumor of one to its source. A young guy, a script kiddy who probably used a trust fund to build himself a decent 'link, is getting out of the game, and he's got a good-sized pile of parts he's looking to unload to pay off some debts. He's asking 12k for the chip. You notice (Judge Intent, 4 successes) that's he's pretty nervous about this, and shrewdly guess that there's some heat on him. Armed with that, you manage to batter him down to $9,000 (Negotiation@+2dice, 3 successes vs no successes), but he'll go no further. Yes or No?
With the time it took to track this thing down, you're going to need to devote almost all of the remainder of your time helping set up the safehouse's Matrix Security system and layout. Attempts to track down further programs or equipment will be more difficult.
GETTING THE CAR
Getting to the garage isn't a problem. None of you notice anything out of the ordinary. 8-bit, I need your character sheet updated on Obsidian Portal with your equipment and current program ratings to finish this.
