I have saved these up over time from roll searching. If I have a couple rolls that are all at the same condition or better shape than the below ebay link. Are they worth keeping for more money. Or are these more abundant that I think and not really worth much in this condition? http://www.ebay.com/itm/1982-D-Jeff...em5893e505cfThanks!

If your coins grade BU or better then keep them or sell them on the bay,otherwise keep a few and spend the rest. IMHO. John1

Thanks for the speedy response. Would you consider either of those two links BU? In my opinion those are like AU50 not BU. If those links are considered BU I have a decent amount then. Thanks!

Keep them with your stash of Bu 1971 half dollars......lol..........Sorry man just kidding. I dont think you saw my post in the half dollar thread a while back, You still need that 1987 half dollar? Email me your address so I can send you one if you do, and let me know if you need p or d.

Not many people out there with responses I guess. Not the same community forum I am used to from 1 year ago I guess.

1982 and 1983 uncirculated coins(cents excepted) have a premium due to a lack of saving when they were released. Mint Sets act as a natural reservoir of truly uncirculated coins on the market and none were made those two years. Combine that with few bags and rolls being saved and you have some modern coins that are very common in circulated condition but genuinely scarce in nice BU condition. I would say that AU and above would be worth saving as long as they have decent eye appeal.
I would say that both of the linked coins are uncirculated but the nickel is rather scruffy so I could go no higher than MS62, not worth the $5.45 shipped. The half dollar is nicer and I could see that one going MS64 with strong luster which would make the price of $8 fairly reasonable.

If you find half dollars from 1982 and 1983 in that condition then I would save them. I spend like $25 for the 4 coins.

Yes, the nickels and half dollars are worth saving. In "borderline BU" condition you might be able to make some money selling them individually, but not a whole lot. You could do reasonably well if you sold them as a roll or half roll, if you provided potential buyers some pics of example individual coins so they know exactly what they're getting. Certainly better than tossing them back.
Now, if you had a bunch of BU 83P quarters, then that would be something that many people would jump at, including myself. Of all the 82, 83 coins those are the toughest to find.

SAVE those 1982 nickles in BU! I sold quite a few of them I found on ebay for $5-15 each. The pictured coin is a stock photo....be careful. Here's an example, I think I sold this one for $10:
