How much should I pay for a 2002 Rocky Mountain Instinct Mountain Bike?

I have been essentially gifted a 2002 Rocky Mountain Instinct in good condition with great components by a friend but need to send him a check for it's value. I have no idea what this bike would go for today. Mbr.com says the original tag was somewhere in the range of $2700. Any help? Thanks.

ehh from 1000 to about 2000 maxamum

if its a friend give him a friend discount. i say around $1500 if in good condition
I think you should send your friend $1000.

That bike was probably available as a leftover in '03 for around $2200.

It's now over 5 bike seasons since it's release. There have been tech advancements made and updates to the component group since then.

It's not a $2700 bike anymore.

I think $1000 is fair.
