my 500mhz pismo cost me only $75 shipped a few months back, but that was a really lucky shot. The auction was un-descriptive, and the photos were blurry, but I could tell what it was, as well as the specs. It was also pretty much stock, 12gb HD, 128mb RAM, airport, DVD, and battery.
My first Pismo, which I got last year, was a supposedly dead unit. It read as a 400mhz 64mb 6gb machine. It turned out to be perfectly fine upon supplying an AC adapter. I even got a charge out of the battery (which I now wish I had kept).
But, your mileage may vary. These days, a pismo should be going for less than $200 and in some cases, less than $100. But all macs have inflated prices. I have even seen B&W prices rise sharply lately.
It really is up to the buyer. Since YOU will be buying it, YOU have to justify the amount you spend on it. If YOU think it's worth that much, then go for it.
