Are you not selling individual pickaxes? If so, how much for the Unbreaking III diamond pick?

No, sorry, I'm selling them all together, they are just some spare ones I had lying around. If I get an Unbr III I'll drop you a message.

This is my estimated price:
Diamonds (18) - 1800 credits. Since they are used however, the price drops to 1.2k. The enchantments look to be from level 12-30. Since enchantments are easy, the price will rise back to 1500 credits. But some of them are used (slightly). This brings the price to 1.3-1.4k. This is not an offer, but I do recommend dropping your price by 85%-90%.

Dropping the price by 85-90% would bring it much below the value of the diamonds alone. The amount of usage that the 3 picks have had as you can see from the image are minimal, they are at almost full health.
I also do not understand how you come to the conclusion that 1.3-1.4k is a reasonable price when 1.8k is just for the value of the diamonds used before any enchantments where made@ 100 per diamond.

The diamonds are in use. Selling 18 diamonds would get around 1.8k, but they can be used for anything. The diamonds in the picks, however, are fixed and cannot be used for anything else. Enchantments at that level are very easy to get (getting all six would take maybe an hour) and in this market are very cheap. The reason I said 1.3k-1.4k is because I have sold picks similar to this in the past for that amount. Anyone can make picks like that very easily. Only picks with Efficiency V, Unbreaking III and Fortune III/Silk Touch have a significant value.
Also, that is what I would offer (bu I have enough picks already).

Please make note of the sections in the quote which I have made bold, one of the picks I have for sale has both these attributes, there for and to quote you it has significant value.
That alone could probably sell in the region of 1.5-3k depending on the buyer.
Now please refrain from posting on my topic, unless you intend to add some accurate information, or apply some logic to your thought before replying.
Here's a summary of how I see the picks individually pricing up.
Unbr III Fort III (1.5k-3k)
Unbr III Fort II x2 (1k-1.5k) <---- There's 2 of these.
Unbr III (500-700)
Fort I (400-600)
Eff IV (500-700)
So using a bit of math we can now conclude that all picks are worth 4.9k-8k. +or- 1k due to fluctuations in market value of items.
