I would *guess* (I've not use any 4CX5000s but based on other tubes that 
are roughly in the same power range) used and in good shape with full 
emission would be some where between $300 and $400 USD each.

Possibly there is some one on here who is more familiar with them, but 
most go for the high power triodes.
I hope you find some one a bit more knowledgeable about that tube.

There are two SK300 sockets (that's the ones with the screen bypass 
caps) on e-bay at present with a buy it now price of $395 USD each, 
however they do have "make an offer" enabled

I've picked up some good, tested 4CX3000's in the $300 range including 
one fresh rebuilt, but the sockets for those are normally almost out of 
sight which probably keeps the price of the tubes down.

73 and good luck,
