Default What's this lens worth?

I borrowed this lens a while back and have been using it to photograph a variety of things. I like the lens somewhat. I'm not sure of the age of the lens but here's a photo of it.


Sorry for the bad photo...I used 'in camera' editing from a RAW file.

So would an offer of $75 be too cheap?

Doesn't seem like it would be too cheap an offer... at least based on this thread: [Lens] Sigma 70-300mm D Macro 1:4-5.6 lens [Nikon mount] - dslreports.com
