Z-50p advice

What does a Z-50p sell for these days? The reason I ask is because I recently bought a broken one for $40, and I'm trying to justify spending ~$115 to have it repaired by PentaxUSA (the circuit board in the grip is fried, and the flash doesn't shut properly). KEH has a PZ-10 in Excellent condition
