Factory service manual - fair price?

What is a fair price for a used one of these? It'd cover w123, diesels, 80's MB, etc.

You need to more specifically define "one of these."

Paper manual, most likely from the early-mid 80's.

Is it printed by MB or someone else ?
If MB then you would need to define some more things... because they make manuals for just the engine, two for the chassis, one for the electrical, one for AC, and maintenance manuals which cover many models for a certain year....
Not " 123" ... except the chassis specific...

So you need to tell us way more to get a good answer...

Printed by MB. I'd be interested in the manual(s) covering w123 chassis, 300td specifically, and the om617. See my signature.

Seller has numerous manuals, but his prices are pretty much the same for each one.

There is one for 615,616,617 normally aspirated ( not turboed)...
and one for 617.952 turbo...
The wagon is covered by the two 123 chassis books.
I have typically paid $50-80 for my paper MB manuals...

I think you can expect to spend $150-200 used from what I have seen.

Fair price = How desperate you want it = How relevant is it.

Even if you overpaid a bit but you get the job done then it is well worth the money.

I haven't spent any money, just wanted to know what to expect to pay.
