Now, if you were looking to buy, I see 'em go for anywhere from $40 to $80 on ebay, depending on condition, how well they were listed, whether or not they were part of a complete panel with spinner, blah blah blah.

That sounds about right, although the ones I was watching were closer to the $40-$60 range. So yeah, dirt, all kidding aside, you could probably get at least $50-$60 selling them on eBay.
