Bill, You could easily get$2,000. A lot depends on the presentation and the current performance you can demonstrate (sensitivity). On ebay these are the key things that buyers look at.

These days there is no ?one price? or even a reasonable range of prices. Some variables: Do you want to take a couple dozen ?pro grade? photos of it and do an eBay listing? If so, do you have an eBay account with a number of good reviews on it? Do you want to ship it or is this a pick up only sort of thing? (Best guess, it will take multiple boxes to ship it all.) If you will ship, are you willing to pack it all up to ship overseas? When was the last time it was tested out and known to be in full operating condition? (and will you offer a ?warranty??) Is this a ham fest sort of sale? Lots of permutations and combinations. Might you price it at $300 and have it go unsold with this or that set of ?answers"? You certainly could. Might you do a lot of work and have it sell for quite a bit more? Yes that could happen. Net after doing fancy shipping ?for free? might be a bit less impressive than the ?sell price?. Simple answer is: Don?t toss it in the trash. Decide how much work you want to do on the selling process. If that turns out to be eBay, do it as an auction.
