I like to use ebay completed auctions to "appraise" stuff. It's a crude method, but it is sort of useful.
should make a script for that . . . or in todays world an app

Re: Old IFI FIRST Control systems.
 
We actually use these controllers for our robotics class in school, and we have saved every set. They are personally my favorite, and some of them have been working for around 6 years now! With the fatality rate of the cRIOs for the past few years, I can only hope we get two or three years out of them.

I have no idea how much they are worth, and I am sure our team is not interested, but I just wanted to share how our team/school uses them.

Re: Old IFI FIRST Control systems.
 
For reference, over the past year i've acquired 3 sets (Robot Controller, OI, and matched radios). I payed ~$400 for one set that was Stamp based + two 884s + two joysticks and about $120 each for the other two which were both Pic based. I've see them listed for much higher, but did not pay attention to whether they sold or not.

P.S. They've held up well for me so far in my combot. :) But they are bulky.
