What's this Bianchi worth?

Years ago (I'm guessing late '80s), at my suggestion, a friend bought a Bianchi Campione D'Italia. He rode for many years and then stopped for health reasons. The bike has been sitting in his basement for at least 10-15 yrs. His health has improved to the point that he is back into cycling and just bought a new Masi. He lives down the road from me and he offered me his Bianchi which I bought sight unseen 'cause I know the bike and I know him. So about 15 minutes ago I put it on my workstand and started going over it. It is pretty much as I expected. Excellent condition except some worn decals. It is Columbus Cromor and everything on the bike is all Campy with Ambrosio wheels, Vittoria tires, stock Bianchi saddle, in a 52 C to C. It's a little small for me and I may sell it rather than ride it. Haven't decided yet. But, if I decide to sell, is there some site that can give me an idea of it's value.

Paid $100 for the bike and I'm thinking I might be able to sell it for $300-400 since I really can't ride it.
