Pet shops will typically take them very early, most likely one to two weeks, however I would suggest that waiting at least four weeks is beneficial to both you and the animals. You will then know they are all eating and evacuating properly.
If you intend to sell privately I would suggest keeping them till around six weeks.

As above really - some shops will take them when they're very young, but it's better for them and your peace of mind if you wait until they're 4-6 weeks before selling them to a shop. They seem to adjust to the move once they're a bit older as well.

For selling privately I'd say a minimum of 6-8 weeks (ideally 6-8") - possibly keep them a bit longer if you're selling to first-time owners.
