When I sold mine (or rather, swapped it for a pile of Sun external
disk boxes) I valued it at UKP120.

That's for a Colour Turbo slab, with a 17" colour monitor, the sound-box
and non-ADB keyboard and mouse.  All NeXT badged, and the monitor had a
minor fault with the power supply.

Indys are very nice indeed.  However, I think I got a pretty good deal
when I swapped mine for a loaded Sun SS1000e :-)
