[Elecraft] K3 - drop in used value?

You could also buy a few pieces from Elecraft and plug them into your 
K3. It would probably take you an afternoon and be less expensive than 
your option 2.

Originally, I put $2909 (less shipping) into my K3 kit, with 100 Watts, tuner, IF adapter (for the P3), wide coverage, AM filter, narrow SSB filter.
