Nvidia Quadro 6000 (Fermi) how much is it worth?

^ this. And checking the "sold listings" in the US only, they are selling for an average of about $375.
 
Interestingly enough, they're be worth a lot more if they were Tesla variants. There are many Fermi based cluster still in use (which is why you still see the C2050/70 being sold.) There is no point buying this card unless you're replacing a bad part on your stable older but dependable workstation (where everything works in harmony.)
 
If you're the buyer (and you aren't totally sure you need THIS quadro card) it's essentially worthless. If you're not working in a specific program(s) that really utilize quadro drivers (no Photoshop is not one of them) the consumer cards will get you vastly more power per buck, and if you DO need quadro drivers, there are better ones out there (or cheaper if you just need the desktop functionality). Not only that, but if you do need a quadro card you're probably using it to make money, a situation where it very literally pays to get the better product.

Now if you're the seller, do as others suggested, look at sold listings on eBay, there are suckers born every minute, and plenty of them have been known to think that a quadro card will speed up Photoshop.
 
No price cheeks outside Genmay.

But the mods are slipping this week (likely on vacation), so continue what you're doing. Just don't be surprised if they crack down on this shit in the next couple weeks again :D
