"The PLane News", which I believe is an airplane collectors magazine which is published in your part of the globe routinely lists the value of Aero Minis in various condition. Furthermore, it lists the various aircraft by model and airline in chart format. It also further has an a column denoted by an "X" which denotes if a box is included. ALthough from this source it does not appear that the presece or absence of a box lends to have much bearing on the final value of the model, in most of the instances I have seen, most of the values is given for the condition of the aircraft, and it is decribed as mint, excellent (little to no wear), very good (minor wear), good (some noticeable flaws), fair (significant flaws, played with), poor, and junk.

Although as mentioned TWA and Pan AM are indeed fairly common, all Aero Mini 741's are more difficult in relation to other AM models, and the price for mint specimens according to this source is approximately $125-150
