Microsoft VB 6.0 Professional Value

It seems that MS VB 6.0 Professional is going for upwards of $250 on eBay.
This seems like more than I paid for it when it first came out. Is there
any reason for the high price? Does anyone remember what it sold for at
retail computer stores?

I remember the Enterprise edition bordering a thousand dollars so the Prof
is definitely around $400 or so. .

Another thing you can search for is 'Visual Studio'

VB comes as part of that - although not everyone knows that

Here are some of the Vis Studio 6 packs for sale
