Not sure what to tell you regarding value. Not an automatic pass for me. I might be inclined to offer $50 less on an otherwise nice frame--depends on whether or not its glaringly visible.
I have a 531 Trek frame with a larger dent on the underside of the top tube. Doesn't affect performance at all and the frame is in excellent overall condition, with a good original Imron finish.
Curious to see what others think of the dent factor and what methods they employ to pop out those pesky tube dents.
