might need some more info to determine that like hdd size and speed, processor, screen size and resolution or just the model number. i would say if its atleast an I series a couple 100
 
As the Old saying goes Dollar two-ninty-five (PS used by my late Uncle).
Joking aside, two factors:
1) Market for used laptops - small
2) Cost of equivalant Laptop Performance wise divided by 2, posibly divide by 3. A "New" i3 going for $400 is probably higher performance

If Dell consummer mode 3->4 years old would be a negaive, Positive if it is an enterprise model.

Best bet to get a realistic idea of value. Google it and go to ebay and see what they are going for - ie:
Dell D620 - $160 http://www.ebay.com/itm/DELL-Laptop-Notebook-Latitude-D620-14-1-1GB-Ram-1-6Ghz-CPU-Wifi-Ready-Purple-/170985942281#vi-content
Del 610 - $60 http://www.ebay.com/itm/DELL-LATITUDE-D610-LAPTOP-2GHz-2GB-60GB-/221183843482?pt=Laptops_Nov05

Personally I'd never sped over $100 for an older used laptop.

@ 06yfz450ridr - an iX, 3 -> 4 years ago, don't think so, Maybe a core daul, or a core 2 daul. at best an E6xxx

Added a referb Dell for $250 (better bet than buyng a used) : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834200598
Brand NEW SB i3's under $500: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100006740%204020%20600003986&IsNodeId=1&name=Intel%20Core%20i3
 
Highest value for an old laptop is to gift it to a relative. I gave a 1005ha Eepc with a fresh copy of win8 to my niece for Christmas that had been sitting unused in a closet for over a year. That was a cheep item to begin with but I'm 100% sure I got far more gratification from her loving it than I would have if I sold it even for the original purchase price.
