Price for server system?

I am helping my neighbor with setting up some stuff for their systems, and they have a server that they no longer need. We want to sell it for a reasonable price, but I really don't have any experience with the hardware and cost side of things. What would you say, as a ballpark approximation, I should post for request on the following specifications (and let's skip the "one dollar!" remarks, please)?

Dell Poweredge 2400
Bios revision A08, 2.7-1 (Build 3571)

2X Pentium III 733 MHz processors, 256 L2 cache Advanced
133 MHz FSB
1024 MB ECC SDRam main system memory
AIC 7880 SCSI RAID Onboard RAID (says RAID 5)

Variable speed noise reduction fans
CDRom
2X USB
2X Serial
1X Parallel
1X (10/100) PCI NIC, 1X Onboard (10/100) NIC
1X Rage IIc video card

The following was found using the dell diagnostics system:
Dell diagnostics build 1044
Server backbone firmware 5.35
Bios 2.7-1 [Build 3571]
Embedded PCI Multifunction Controller - Bus 1
Intel: 960 RM Bridge function 1
Dell Raid function 2, Raid 2/5i
Bus 1-6 Adaptec Function 1 AIC7880 Fast 20 SCSI Controller
Embedded Pequr/Ross USB PCI Universal Controller USB Function 1
PCI 1,2,3,4, PCI/ISA 5, PCI 6


Thanks for all your help, it will be greatly appreciated.
 
FYI, price checks are a no-no in General Hardware. But I'll give you a tip: a tape drive (or lack of one) could swing the price a lot. They're expensive.

Ah ok, sorry, thought it was for hardware questions too, where should I post instead?

There really isn't a place... However, more people get away with things in Off Topic.
