If it's got the carb adapters, then $300-$400.  If the carb adapters are missing much less, the adapters will cost you over $100 to replace.  I bought one used in good shape with carb adapters for $300.  There have been a couple on eBay lately for over $500 w/adapters, but they haven't sold.

you'll eventually pay for it...
and not have it.

If you want it for a base for a project it is worth a hundred bucks~
But the cost of making or replacing the adapters would render it nearly worthless.

At $225-275 you probably couldn't lose,

once you get near $300,
especially without the adapters,
I probably wouldn't bite on it unless I really had to have it.

They're not that great of an intake manifold,
a modified split single plane intake with a big plenum volume and small cross section runners 
(the center section between the carbs is wide open).

They really do look good though.
