$300 is not bad at all for a new one! make sure you take it out of the box and make sure its untouched, also if its been sitting since 97 they might be willing to go down on it. Tell them you only have $250 and if they come back saying they have to sell it for $300, just be like "ok il try to borrow the money from somebody" and take that shit!
