I have some early 2600 and 5200 pre-release games with eproms on dev boards (and More). Wondering how I find the going rate for such items? Can you recommend some place to look where people are either selling or wanting such prototye games? Or are Ebay or Craigslist the best places? I have too many to list. Trying to start getting an idea what they might be worth. some are near-final versions, many are final versions on Eprom or even rom, and a few are final for unreleased games.

Can anyone give me some good advice?

Without much more then your description so far I would say between a couple hundred to a couple thousand ea.
for the 2600 and a little less on the 5200 but you will need to get some pictures and a list of titles before
anyone could say for sure. I would recommend showing them hear and the people who know will jump in :)

for the 2600

A couple thousand if it is one of a kind, a couple hundred if it was unreleased and several copies exist.
