Going price of OOP Leman Russ Battle Tank

I have a new-on-sprue Leman Russ Battle Tank and wondered what I should expect to charge for the vehicle. This is the version that had the "spiked" dozer blade accessory sprue.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'd say 50-65% of current LR MBT retail. But that's just what I'd be willing to pay for one.

I'd pretty much agree, and say somewhere around 60% retail for a cash deal.

I'd rate it's trade value much, much closer to retail though. As long as it's advertised as such.

The earlier version of the russ is not near as different from the current one to make it stand out or be as rare as lets say the first version of the land raider. The newer russ versions are "better" enough while still looking enough like the older one to not stand out as much.
This makes the older one not worth near as much as you might think. Now if you can get your hands on a NOS old land raider, you might have some cash on your hands but even then, I would think $100 would likely be tops (if they are desperate) end with maybe $75 being more likely if your lucky. The price of a current land raider would be MOST likely. Older russes? Most say, "meh".

So $30.00 for the kit seems reasonable?

Thanks everyone for your replies.
