No more then $100.
You can get a 2700X with 8 cores for about $200 new these days, and when it was in stock Ryzen 1600AF 6 core CPUs went for $80. It's hard to justify spending much on 4 core CPUs these days.

Here are some questions first:
1.What's your PC specs?
2.What's your budget?
3.What games are you playing or planning to play in near future?

That i3 is a Dual Core CPU
Pretty much any LGA 1151 Quad Core CPU is better than your CPU.
If you can get your hands on i5-7600K just buy it is a great CPU and Overclockable too. On ebay US is around $125-$150 maybe lower on auctions. (Also remember to update your Motherboard Bios before changing CPU's).
Also if you can upgrade that 8GB to 16GB (2x8) RAM better.

you could get an i3 10100f or a ryzen 3 3100 for less than 100€, both 4c 8t or an 10400f for 140€ for a 6c 12t chip, get a cheap socket 1200 for intel/ am4 for amd mobo for maybe 50-80€ and 16gb gskill aegis for 50€ ... 6th and 7th skylake on ebay is a ripoff

I would guess that he's trying to figure out his options for upgrading without a motherboard change. He's probably got an i5-6600K (like me). Unfortunately, there are no good upgrade options for that socket type. Prices for used 6700K/7700K are stupidly high.

Seriously if you already struggle with that bit more, refuse to get a new motherboard, maybe you should get a console.
In the end depending on your needs you end up upgrading in 2 years again and then you will need a new motherboard and be out more expensive.

Hi!
What do you think is the right price for this processor? Second hand of course.
I want to buy one but seems so overpriced everywhere for an old CPU with a lot of new alternatives
Thanks
