well ,it varies a lot. probably the most important variables that come
to mind are what condition it's in, where it's located, and who's buying.
for a hobbyist like myself with a small budget, a couple hundred bucks
would be about as much as we'd likely offer. For someone upgrading a system
or replacing a dead one, you might get 3-500 for it.. For a commercial
customer whose other options are refurbed units from resellers, most of
whom are total vultures about prices of archaic gear, if he's desperate
to expand or replace hardware... maybe 6-8 hundred? i'm assuming eastern USA
for both customer and machine.. obviously a box like this won't cross an ocean
unless the buyer is getting it almost for free..

my .02,
