Price Check, Anyone?

Just wondering what a fair sum to offer might be for a routed, stock JM that's been in storage for fifteen years.
The glove mech needs work, but the parts to repair it are allegedly included. Don't know on the condition of the PF as the game is still folded and stored. One side of the cab' has fade. No LED's. Otherwise, the game is described as "good."

Checked the archived ads for JM and see that, within the last year, prices have ranged from $2.3K to $4.1K, with the average hovering at $2.8K. My instinct has me offering no more than $2.7K. Am I way off?

Thanks in advance.

Quoted from Waxx:

In nice or lightly modded working condition they are anywhere from 2800-3200 but have been going up every year for the last 5 years. There just aren't that many good DMD era pins left under $3k.
That said it's a lot of work if you have never fixed a JM and I wouldn't buy a project unless it was very cheap. Just pass if it's been sitting for 15 years as the boards could be bad or any number of things that could flip it upside down quick. If I was committed to the idea though I would go through it with a fine tooth comb and still wouldn't get close to 2700.

Thanks, Waxx, for your helpful reply. Seller did mention that he replaced a board and that, at this point, all the boards are sound. He's an operator, so I take him at his word. Still, his asking price is well north of $2.5K, so this may not work out. Drat.

Thanks, Eric, for your thoughts, too. Don't know that I will end up in a JM, but I'm looking for a project pin to busy myself with while I wait to find a buyer for my modern Stern.
