One data point, I picked up one off ebay for $200 last year, that appeared to be NOS. It has since moved to another home. I have a Series 5 as well, and would put a higher value on the Panasonic built Schwinns than the Taiwan or China models. Of course, I have FOUR Panasonic built Schwinns right now....
As a rough rule of thumb, around here, a nice vintage bike with indexed shifting will bring $275 to $300, higher than that for a high end group or something really special.
