Oh sure, drive down the market :-).
Materials (for a kit) run $1,000 to $1,500. Even if you labor is not worth anything, you should probably not go lower than that. $2,000 to 2,500 is reasonable.
You could try EBay with a minimum bid of $1,500 and see what happens. I'm sure we would all be interested in your results.
