Answers:
Unfortunately, you probably will take a hit on a resale, regardless of how "new" and "unused" the set is. Musical instruments are often a lot like cars. Once you "drive them off the lot" they lose a significant amount of value.
That said, you should certainly be able to get more than the pawn shop offered you.
Try posting an ad on craigslist. You may be able to move it fast and still get a decent sum for it.
If you paid around $500, don't expect much more than $400.
