As a die-hard castle freak (although crusaders isn't my thing), I would
suggest selling the minfig 'whole' (i.e. head, torso/arms, and legs), and the
accessories seperately.
This is probably the best way to both keep the buyers happy and to get the
best deal. Typically, I prefer buying them seperately, because I can focus on
the exact figures and accessories I need.
