price for used Tri-Ex LM-470

[RICK]

Hello -- I have the opportunity and desire to purchase a Tri-Ex LM-470 
70 foot crank-up tower.  A local ham has one and is looking to sell his.
The tower is approximately 2 years old and has a new motor installed due
to a lightning strike.  The tower is in excellent condition but had to
be welded to a an existing base mounting.  My question is what is a fair
market value for the tower?  I am not looking to "steal" the tower but
also do not want to pay an excessive price.  What are your opinions on
its worth?  The new cost of the tower was $3658 plus shipping.  

Thanks and 73          Rick N5VVB
