I'd think they'd accept $ 5,000 , as a wild guess.
Depends on a lot..........'what all' it needs.
heck...........try 2,500 and hope for 3,000 max......
but recognize you're likely taking on a project.
I see running ones for fairly low prices..........like 5K.  I think they are
more valuable than people think they are.
Sure..........try 2,500 ............they're main goal likely is to be rid of
it.
heck, try 1,000 ~!
