I have a couple for sale/trade, but I'm afraid my valuation would be
somewhat higher than that :( I'd buy several more for $20 apiece if
they could be found.
If you want to spend a lot of hours sifting through vendors' junk-board
boxes, you can find one without software or cable for maybe $1-5, and
get the software off the 'net, but I price mine in original box with
software & cable at more like $50 or trade.
I'd trade one for a properly constructed/tested 34-50pin
CompatiCard-to-8"-drive cable, OR a CompatiCard IV to replace my CC II.

I remember having one of these many years ago, but I can't find it
anymore.
You mention that they are commonly available, but where do you
recommend that
I start looking??
