Not much.

No offense, but I wouldn't go to the time and trouble of listing that on ebay..... it's not worth it... too old. Although if you're REAL lucky you might find some one looking for a PLAYER to play their old tapes. There are people out there looking for that sort of thing for the purpose of trancoding older tapes and such. But that I believe would be compared to finding a needle in a haystack.

I would throw it in a yard sale for $20

I would throw it in a yard sale for $20This camcorder doesn't do any transcoding since it is completely analog. Not one part of it is digital. That's how ancient this camcorder is.

Guess what? I just sold it for $80. :)

The box still has the outrageous $280 price sticker on it. Ha!

Wow you are pretty lucky. A Digital8 camcorder could come in handy for playback of your old tapes through firewire.
