3pt are true 'pull' / lift type?
Generally old implements go for half value or less of new.
For a small one like a 4'.. I can see about 100-150$.. maybee 200$ if minty, clean and painted with no issues or leaks, and decent blades and tail wheel / bearings., and someone was looking for that particular unit.

Kinda depends on where you are and how heavy duty it is -- hard to get a four foot of any type around here for less than around $350 unless it really is in tough shape. As Soundguy said if you use the 1/2 price guide --$325 would seem about right versus new TSC prices. Condition matters more than age 
(or so I keep telling myself)

I was at a ranch auction a few weeks ago and an old 4' (maybe early 80's model) went for $725. I thought it was a bit much since the 5 & 6 footers went for around $400. But you know how auctions go. . .two guys decide they want it and the race is on. Once they got past $300 I was dropped out and enjoyed the show.
Then I bought a used 5' Deere 513 for $450 from a Deere dealer. A new 5' fromt he Deere dealer is about a grand, so the half new is probably a pretty good guide.
You might try asking your local dealer how much it woul dgo for if they were selling it.

Carol,
Are you anywhere near Connecticut. I've been looking for one and they are hard to find.
