Default Estes "The Dude" pricing?

Hello Doctor (and everyone else),

The owner of a store in my neighborhood that carries model rockets was offered seven unopened Estes "The Dude" kits (the inflated aluminized mylar rockets) by one of her customers, who found them in his garage. She has no idea of what price to sell them for, and I wasn't able to give her even a ballpark figure. While "The Dude" is an out-of-production kit, I don't think it is one of the "more missed" ones, nor was it (if memory serves) said to be a great flier. However, I told her that it might make a satisfactory demonstration rocket for her teacher customers. Many thanks in advance for any price suggestion(s) that you (and/or anyone) can suggest!
