There is a significant market for most of these items on eBay, so the
completed auctions can be a useful indication of market price.
A search on "mitrek" shows 63 items.  Some are Mitrek parts.
Be sure to check that the item actually sold at the listed price.
Some people are overly optimistic when they put a minimum bid on 
their sale item.  And be sure to check several items.  Prices can
vary quite a bit.  Example: Mitrek, high band, high power, complete,
tested, $76.  (An SP unit though).

Used equipment dealer prices are usually more than eBay prices.
Check http://www.panikelectronics.com for one on-line list.

Hamfest prices are usually quite a bit lower than eBay, but I 
don't know about Dayton.

At most hamfests you'd have a hard time giving away a Micor.

BTW, let me know if you have any low-band low-range Mitreks, cheap.
