It depends on condition and rarity. There are several variations of the 1st and second models. The current, 2012 value for a model 1 ranges from $350 - 1000+ and for model 2 the range is $400 - 2000+. These values are for examples in good or better condition with all matching serial numbers and no missing or damaged parts. The + on the high end would be for excellent condition, rare variation with a special factory original feature(s).
