How would you go about selling these 70's commons?

I am selling a Large 1970-79 Card collection.
I have been selling off the HOFer cards on eBay with starting bids at .99 whenever I get the free listings. With these, I averaged $5.65 profit (after shipping and fees) per card, with 448 cards sold in total.
But now that the HOFers/stars are whittling down, I am next going to be selling the commons off. Ive got Four 5-row boxes full of commons from these years. The boxes are:
1970-1974...(Most of which are 1970 and 1971)
1974, 1977-1979
1975-1977
and Misc
The Misc has some 1965T, a few 1953 Bowman Color, but other than that, its just more of what is in the other boxes.
So my question for Y'all is, How would you sell these?
Do I stick with the .99 listings?
Do I do .50 listings?
Do I avoid ebay all together and spend a bunch of time making a spreadsheet of what I have and sell here/other forums to set collectors?
Do I do lots?
Or should I do something else?
What are your thoughts?
Thanks!

Here is a scan of 9 random cards that I pulled out. I'd say they are all in about the same shape as what is in the scans.
