Pairing sets / selling "as a package"

I've seen this referred to here and there in the forums. Is it really effective for getting more money? For instance... I saw someone once suggest to get 75001 Republic v. Sith Troopers at a discount, to pair them with 9500 Sith Interceptor. That sounded like a good idea, so I picked up a few. But now that I'm thinking about selling, I see the 9500... dozens of listings for $80 - $90 (which is lower than I want to go anyway). And if I add in a 75001, I'll want at least $10 or $15 more... I can only imagine my listing being "lost in the herd"... next to the other 9500's it is going to look overpriced, and who's going to notice that extra little set added in? I just don't see how people would pay extra for a "group set". Has selling items "as a package" worked for you? How? When do you do it, and when do you not? How do you make your listing stand out so that people really notice that you're offering a good deal?
