Hi Neither unit is very common. In the same sort of venue, the 3801's sell for about half of what the 3815's sell for. If the 3801 is re-packaged to look like the instrument version, it's price goes up.
On your favorite auction site 3815's typically sell for $400 to $550 delivered to the US from the usual suspects. Single unit auctions from normal people would be well below that, but very uncommon.

When they all arrived, I added the internal jumpers for selecting between RS232 and RS422, and connected them all to antennas and a PC to verify functionality of the units as a whole and their timekeeping abilities. They all worked perfect and fell well within the normal ranges of operation. Since then, I've had a lot of drama in my life. I've changed jobs a couple times, moved a couple times, etc etc. Well, my life is starting to calm down some and I'm trying to get back into my hobbies, one of which is being a time nut. I'm thinking about tracking down a couple Z3815A's and possibly other pieces of hardware to add to my collection. To fund buying the other equipment, I was thinking about getting rid of a couple of my Z3801A's. I usually don't like to get rid of any piece of equipment, but if I was getting rid of one GPSDO so that I can get other related equipment, I don't think I'd feel too much remorse. My question is this... What is the current market value on working and tested Z3801A's? And for that matter, what is the usual market value on Z3815A's? Trying to see if I can make this work somehow.
