Maytag Value Thoughts
Hmmm... the price one is willing to pay for a Maytag? You pose an interesting question that has multiple caveats. I'll share my logic and you can take it for what it's worth.
Do you have a dream machine? Will it be a daily driver? Consider condition, tub size, model, tolerant partner, time, will-power, tools, how badly do you want it, is it rare?
You showed a smaller tub lower-tier machine... which I usually pass (I have kids/dogs).
I've paid $0 to $1 (yes one dollar) for my machines and enjoy the hunt/challenge. I have room for a daily driver (currently an a9600) and a few backup machines (donors and projects in various stages of disassembly). In the Boston area, especially during the summer, free machines are not uncommon.
So the short answer is it depends...
