I have been asked to sell some propolis which I have scraped off various items over time, thinking that at some time it will be useful.
Does anyone have an idea of what it's worth - if anything?

Ebay is good place to check out prices. Supposedly raw "Organic" propolis sells for around £10 for 50gms, or 15gm rolled sticks for £3.50ish (including postage).

Thanks Nigel.
It's not going to make me rich or pay for the electricity this winter but at least there will be some use for it. One day I will try to work out how many hours I put in to beekeeping and estimate my hourly rate. I'll be prosecuting myself for paying below the minimum wage! Although it is just a pastime rather than a job.

Is propolis worth collecting?

It's worth collecting rather than throwing away.
I've sold some moderate sized lumps to someone who makes natural products to sell.
It's more likely for me to distribute it around bait hives though.
