I want to sell some Male Cream Legbar X Female Black Rumpless Araucana chicks but I wonder what's standard practice if any when you sell chicks that aren't sex-linked and can't guarantee if they're male or not. I'll discount the price for the unknown factor but do people generally buy like this i.e. rolling the dice?
 
Yes, do sell them as unsexed and let them know that in general only 50% is female.
Even hatcheries sell unsexed batches.

Not everyone likes buying unsexed. But there are lots of people who don’t mind culling a cockerel to eat him or to find another way for surplus cockerel.
 
Do you plan to keep a few yourself? I would be curious how they will look as grown ups and if possible, maybe even keep one cockerel.
Mixes are often even greater beauties than the pure breeds.
