Here's what a new Skylake build with roughly similar parts (the same parts where the original parts still make sense) costs. Knock a third off of it and that's $740 (so the $850 two of us have suggested is already giving you more for a used PC than is typical).
Now, Dell or someone can stick this at Walmart or Best Buy new and mark that up to $1800. Again, that's a new PC and they have that whole brand equity thing.
Hell, you can do something in the same neighborhood *new* from CyberPower (not my cup of team, but we're talking a low-knowledge customer) at $1345
