Default plumb Barbara

An old bricklayer I worked with gave me this when he retired. I've had it for many years. A neighbor stop to borrow a tool yesterday and saw this on a shelf in my basement work shop and ask me if I wanted to sell it. He offered me $125. for it.
I told him I would think about it.
Does anyone know what it is worth. It is in like new condition. The container does have some shelf wear. don't know why pictures are sideways

Thanks, Dave

There's one on Ebay asking $599, similar to yours, similar packaging.

There's another, probably a different manufacturer, looks used, asking $189.

Here's a used one for $395:

Ok, I am selling this . I'm asking $200. plus shipping. I think that's fair from what I have found out there for sale.

Any construction worker or surveyor would love to have this . Before retirement I had a lot of fun showing it to guys.
