Value of a PDP/8?

OK, so this is a pretty dumb question, but what is the 'value' of a 
typical PDP/8? Now I appreciate that configuration can vary wildly and 
beyond that it is a matter of one what can be located for or what your 
prepared to pay, luck and circumstance etc.

In terms of basic model I was thinking either a Straight-8 or PDP8/E. Now 
I know only a few years ago a reseller had a number of the latter in 
stock, tested, for about 400 UK pounds each. Albeit likely with no 
peripherals, just the card cage and some sort of base config.

I've always wanted to own an 8 and have recently been considering the idea 
of trading some less easy to run equipment.

Cheers,

Andrew
