Hence, "what they're actually worth"

First, I know approximately nothing about old
Intel chips, so
forgive any incoherence.
A friend of mine just came across a couple of Intel 8008 chips.
Apparently, some ebay sellers think they're solid gold.

As far as we can tell, that's what Mel has.
Anyway, I told him I'd try to find out what it's actually worth and
whether anyone here is willing to pay whatever's reasonable.
He also has some later 8008s without the gold cap.
They're worth $100 absolute max in my opinion, probably half that.
The eBay seller is smoking crack.
