How much is a complete computer tower (motherboard, ram, processor, etc) worth?

Depending what they came out of, you might could've gotten a lot better than scrap for those boards. Most every motherboard will have a model number on it, I google the numbers to see what they're going for

This is an excellent suggestion. What prices have you seen for some of the more-than-scrap-value boards? Also, I assume, correct me if I'm wrong, that those prices are based on having the board tested to verify that it functions. If you can't test them, would that preclude you from being able to sell them for their full value?

You could still list it as "untested as-is", but "tested working, guaranteed not DOA" gets better responses. I had an older board several months ago which had been in the pile awhile but it caught my attention one day so i googled it, they were selling regular for $130 plus, but since it would taken rebuilding an older computer to check it, I just tossed it back in. Still, later I saw one Vintage Computer Forum, a guy there wanting to buy those boards , working ones at a premium. Some boards if rare enough it doesn't matter, those guy's are good enough to troubleshoot and repair motherboards
