What are they with? (about 1k?)
Are they hard to sell?
Does the quality (max or worthless) matter?
How many should you have in your inventory before looking for a buyer?
Are superior worth identifying yourself, or sell them to?

first learn how to check mods before you id them. Then 1k is what you sell unid's for. You sell them in bulk usually to people who are working on wisdom title. Then you keep anything with a good mod and id it yourself get mod sell it. No max damage doesn't matter since they just want the title.

i usually just raptor farm until my bank is filled with unid golds and sell em to my guild for 4.5k, or to regular people for 5k (per 7 in both cases) as long as you have 7 though you can sell some. ive found most people only want to buy 7-14 in the first place

Roughly 1k, but best to sell in bulk though

Depends, always gona get those idiots who don't understand what you are doing, asking to look at the skins, just want to buy one, etc. When you send the message to sell in towns say they are "FOR TITLE!"

People prefer max, usually from eotn or nf since those have inscripts, but doesn't matter that much

This past weekend I sold 28 max unids all from eotn for 26k. I tend to sell in numbers divisible by seven, since thats the max number of items traded at once. 28 items for 26k, 4 trade sessions with 6.5k each session. This way no one gets scammed.

I think you mean runes here, people usually look for items for title. Probably better to identify the armors and hopefully get a sup vig. But up to you.

As for the golds, overall I think it is more profitable to sell unids in bulk then identify yourslef then merch if nothing good. Its up to you if you want to identify and keep the q9, but then you might end up like me with mules full of q9's.

This was my first time selling unids in bulk this past weekend, but it was succesful. I have another 20 sitting on my character so will farm 8 more and make another easy 28k.

Easiest way is to equip the item, usually in an explorable, Siirius. It doesn't work for all mods (Enchanting etc), but you can find out if it's a Vampiric Scythe of Fortitude or not.

Basically you watch for health increase from base, energy increase from base, -energy or health regen. Easiest ones to identify. If you're into maths in a big way, you could always try to find out if it's 20% on Enchants as well
