Question about a system

Can anyone tell me a few things about a system:

Consider the following machine:

        VAX6000/400
        3 x HSC70
        2 x TU79
        11 x Exsys disk drives
        6 x Microtech disk drives

        o How big is this machine?

        o How much might it originally have gone for?

        o What might it be worth now?

I'm not looking for answers like, "Pay me and I'll cart it away."

I know someone who has such a machine and is trying to sell it, but
I suspect that he is expecting a LOT more for it than it may be
worth nowadays... it is 10-12 years old and he recently had it at
auction on eBay for a minimum bid of $10000... I gather it did not
get any bids...
