You would be lucky to give it away.

You're absolutely correct. What you're seeing is an odd state of
mind in which unbuilt Heathkits -- ANY unbuilt Heathkits -- take on
"collectible" value vs. the real value of what they'd be worth once
assembled.

I've seen the symptom many times, though I consistently fail to
understand it despite the fact that I've built many a Heathkit while
they were around.

Keep the peace(es).
