Unbuilt Kits

Just by coincidence, I was at a industrial electronics supplier to pick up a
couple feet of RG-62/U a couple weeks ago and found an unbuilt 1962 vintage
Eico 720 CW transmitter kit sitting on a shelf.  There was no evidence of
deterioration and even the resistors I spot-checked were good, but: it was
minus the the two final tank coils and the bandswitch! :-(

There was a lot of other Eico and Eicocraft(?) kits that were unopened but I
really wasn't interested in test equipment or electro-platers and the like.

Humble good-sport that I am, I'm prepared to face a few wise-crack replies
(maybe post the best one to the list) in order to ask: is the 720 kit worth
any $$?  Or ¢¢?
