I handled reshipping an earlier model one with a nice C4004 in it a couple years ago, was about $3000 IIRC

That's right, it was also very dirty and dusty, I spent more than an hour cleaning it, so for most it was just a mess

I just double checked my records the one I handed was the original Busicom 141, and one of the first made, thus the rather high price it went for
Yours is the later 162, so doesn't have the provenance of 'first machine with a 4004' but its still a nice one with a 4004, probably still worth $1500ish with a nice socketed early 4004
