You don't say what brand it is. I am going to say less than $15 though.

What keyboard is it? If you are expecting to make some sort of a profit, I'll probably go ahead and burst your bubble now.  Especially by the time you put key caps on it, you most likely won't be able to flip it and make any money on it.  That being said, if you want to use it, likely not a bad deal. Good find. 

 

I've donated a few mechanical keyboards recently to good causes as selling them is hassle, and they aren't worth much. (Its never the right switches, key caps, brand. etc).

If it were completely clean and you had all the keycaps, maybe worth 30$

Used keyboards don't have high resale values unless you're talking really, really high-end or custom. Yours is neither. I would venture a guess that if you put a good $30 set of PBT keycaps on it, it would be worth about $10.

Keyboards do not retain value.

Modern boards yes, but classic IBM Model M's and F's and similar have held up.

And there are the weird group-buy only customs that somehow sell for insane amounts of money second hand.

Even worse when you look at something like GMK keycaps.
