Not too much because you really have no way of knowing what you're buying. Knowing where they came from tells you that they were run hard...
Check all discs for play/bad bearings. Check the curtain, because if it's not complete you will need one and they aren't cheap. Look them over for leaks and signs of leaking and any other things regarding their general condition.
Those are only small mowers but I think they could be worth anything from 100 bucks to 1500 bucks if it's very nice. Don't think I'd want to pass a grand on most of them. They're just expensive to fix if there is problems.

You should also check the housing with the pulley that runs the bar. They are usually wore behind the pulley so that the pulley is cock-eyed. That will cause the belts to jump off and aint easy to fix.
