Any help with the value of a vintage Weaver T-6 scope?

Got this scope with a used rifle I bought. Rifle was made in the mid '60s and I'm guessing the scope is similar in age. It is in good but certainly not mint or great condition. I am wanting to sell it, so if anyone can help me price it correctly, I would much appreciate it.

1 inch steel tube, duplex reticle (I think Weaver called them 4 plex), front adjustable objective for parallax. Glass on the eyepiece is very good, front glass looks slightly hazy to me with great light and a magnifier. 2 sets of light ring marks.

Based on the price of a like scope listed here > http://theshooterscorner.com/files/2016/12/2016-SCOPES.pdf....I would price it similarly. Your best chance for top dollar would be for someone who competes in Hunter / varmint Hunter Class Benchrest as by rule they are limited to 6x max. optics. A review of equipment lists show these models are still used today, however, participation in the 6x class of competition has dwindled severely in the last decade -so your chances of finding a customer willing to pay top dollar is very limited. The all steel Weavers were built solid, the Parallax adjustment is an absolute necessity in Competition and I would hold out for offers over $200 if it doesn't sell in short order.
 
There is one in similar condition right now on fleabay for $205 with one bid.
