I once went to get a quote from a music store near Sheffield on an old boosey BBb. It sounds to be pretty similar to this one (except bigger) - a compensating 3 valve Class A. It was in reasonable condition - no big dents and the silver was all there but showing its age a little. I was quoted around £800. I would think the Eb version would be a bit less (£600?), but as said below, condition and number of valves will affect this a lot.

Oh - as an afterthought, I don't know if you've had a go on it yet, but from what I've seen of the old Class A's they actually blow really well.
