Default Resale value of printing/pressing equipment?

So I'm going to drop around $2600 on this equipment to set up my store. I'm wondering how much I can hope to recoup from this stuff if the business fails and I have to sell it. Any ideas? Here's the total package I'm going to buy:

Looks to be everything needed for a startup. The plotter and the heatpress usually bring good money at E-bay auctions. The clip art is probably a bust. The design software you would probably keep just to have or use it in the sale of the plotter.

Don't know about the others, but you will probably get about 1/2 to 1/3 the cost of a heat press back selling it used. This will vary on how much it's been used, how old it is, etc.; but I wouldn't expect more than about 50-60% of the new purchase price back or any less than 30% (if it still works).
