It depends on how you determine an object's value in the game. If you store it in the object itself (one good way to go), then you can do something like this:
obj
  var/value
proc/sell()
  var/obj/what
  what = input("Sell which item?", "Sell") in usr.contents
  if(what)
    if(alert("Sell [what] for [what.value]?",,"Yes","No") == "Yes")
      usr.gold += what.value
      del(what)
      usr << "You sold [what]."


This will work if you store the value in the object where it is appropriate.
