New Compressor, Evaporator, Condensor, Hoses, Expansion Valve, Drier, and Freon plus labor will probably be about $2000-3000. I highly doubt you will need new everything. You probably can assume you need a new compressor. The other components don't go out as frequently, but they do over time. But all being shot is unlikely.
When I bought my SD, I bought it with non-working A/C. Turns out 2 owners before me replaced the compressor just 4 years prior. The A/C lost its charge because of a leak in the condenser (which happened apparently with the same owner). I replaced the condensor with a parallel flow and had hoses made up. I put in new oil, a new drier and expansion valve and freon to get it working. Probably cost me $3-400 total but I did it all myself so no labor costs involved.
