Hi Greg,
     OK I'll take a stab at it.  There are lots of variables to consider.  I recently had a 320 fast build kit, un-started, big tail, upgrades and a few accessories, excellent condition and after a while I got about $22K so I'll use that as a starting point.  If there has been work done to a kit it's really up to the buyer to decide if that's a plus or minus.  Some people want to do it all themseves, others are glad to get a lot of labor cheap.  Then again you have to consider the quality of work done.  If there is an experienced builder handy, get him/her to look at the work.  Try to get a sense of how organized the seller is.  If there are parts lost or missing it could cost you a fortune to replace them one at a time.  How old is it, has it been moved arround alot, does it have the motor mount you want, any tools and materials, how old is the resin? Read as much of the LML archives as you can stand to get a sense of what problems people have had and what to look for.   
        good luck
