I like this board. What would be a reasonable price? Any suggestions?

I would say about €80-100 (40 for the CPUs and 40-60 for the board)

well. i spent 2 years collecting parts for same system so i can give you some hints how mush it will cost if you want to get it fast or cheap 
Fast way:
CPUs: 20UDS per CPU + shipping (20 is gold scrap price - fully tested can cost a bit more)
VRM: $10+shiping
Coolers: 20 per HS/cooler + shipping
Memory: Looks like it's SDRAM EDO. So 256MB will cost 20-40+shipping
MoBo: Pretty rare so 40+USD +shipping
VGA: you can find S3 in any trash can
I tried to make it cheap:
Found mobo on gold scrap sale for 5USD of course with no guaranty. I have 40+ PPro CPU in my collection so there was no problem to find 2 that match. Next 12 month i was searching for VRM. I could not find it on local market so i had to buy Server extension board with 2PPro and 2VRMs on ebay for 60USD with free shipping... well at least i have 1 spare VRM.
Memory... another long story... Had to buy huge gold scrap lot on eBay with SDRAM EDO memory (thanks to John and AVICC for help with shipping)
Real pain in the ass was coolers. I had only 1 i did not want to pay 30USD for single one from ebay. But last week i was lucky enough to buy PPro server in perfect condition for 18USD 
So in 2 years i have all i need to build DUAL PPro system.
I'm only 1 step away from perfection - i have 1 OEM black cooler and 1 blue cooler. I would like to have 2 identical coolers - this is my task for upcoming 2 years
Sorry my story too long and more fits to sado-maso magazine.
So now it's up to you to decide what reasonable price is

He can wait for a gift from his family for 0 EUR too.
To be serious. Question was how much you would pay for presented set. In my opinion around 50-60 EUR. I'm not fun of PPro boards but like Breakpoint mentioned they become rare and sought.
