Well you're certainly free to set whatever price you want and sell your cables on Ebay and Audiogon. I would suggest to see if you can aim for 50-60% of the price of major head-fi cable companies for a similar cable.
I agree with the others though: you shouldn't sell your cables for a profit on the FS forums. Not only because it's against the rules. But you're basically taking advantage of a free (courtesy) service provided by this website. If you sell something for a profit on the FS forums, surely head-fi should be entitled to a percentage of your profits?

Well, I respect those of you who do DIY cables and give them away for free or sell them at cost price; but I also strongly believe that a person's time and effort must be taken into consideration or else big names such as ALO audio, Jenna cables, Qables etc... will go bankrupt. Also, I am not here to sell tons and tons of DIY; it's just a hobby of mine that I do with my spare time and would feel encouraged to keep on making more by selling the cables and making some profit. I obviously wouldn't price my cables anywhere close to what the companies listed above are selling them for because I believe that the customer must get what he pays for to be as fair as possible. Thanks!
