The drive is not worth $250. As you saw, it is probably worth about $100; as you sold one. Just because a idiot or two bid up one for $250 doesn't mean that's the value of it. Some 4000 HD drives have sold a pretty penny on Fleabay recently, but you can also get a complete 4000 setup for $300 to $400. Don't know why the drive itself would fetch ~$200.
