On eBay they range from $55.00-$400.00 for a 2006 and $30.00 to $100.00 for a 2004.

Now a days around $100 - $125 would be a good price. Some people still think they are worth gold but with they really are old school now a days.

Dwayne is right. They had their day and time, but for the vast majority of applications today, they are antiquated. They hold a special place in the memories of many, but not enough so to pay a lot for them. Ebay would likely be your best chance of getting the most money for them.

Don't have any to sell. Thanks for the replys. These are a very basic scanners and I can't see going over $40 for them. Just looking for some other feedback.

Charles, a fair price for one of these scanners is only dictated by what it is worth to a buyer. Period, full stop.
Fair is a subjective word; what's fair to one person may not be fair to another.
There are some who hold these old scanners in high regard and are willing to pay top $$. They are getting harder and harder to find, but these buyers tend to maintain the value of these old scanners.
Personally speaking, I couldn't live with myself if I paid more than $75 for one.......
