How much would you pay for a stock air box?

I am looking to replace my stock air box because the clips to hold it together on the left are broken. One of the nipples is also broken but patched. How much would you pay for a used stock air box that was in mint condition? Can't go for too much since many people are getting rid of them.

Actually i meant that i am looking to buy one, not sell one. I figured no more than 50, but i didn't know how low you guys thought I could probably get it for.

Those broken loops happen to everybody. The stock air box can be a bitch to put back together. One trick is to lube the rubber insulator on the air filter on the side the loops are on. It helps the plastic cover to slide over the insulator and into the loops. K&N provides a tube of lube with its filter, or you can use vasoline jelly.

I'm ashamed to say I paid something over $100 for a used airbox (the dealer wanted $350+). I think I got it from that MazdaMart place....whatever that place is down in Georgia. (I didn't want to mess with a private sale...someone online taking my $ and then not shipping the part.)

When the part arrived, it was dirty, but nothing was broken and being it was just plastic, it cleaned up easily.

I have a stock air box for sale if you want it.
Also, I have an RE Amemiya intake with the GReddy foam filter for sale. This intake will increase your hp around 10 to 20 hp.
