I'm considering a used VPI TNT MkIII. The seller says it was produced between '95-'98. I know nothing about VPI tables. What should be the reasonable value of such a VPI table that's reported to be in excellent condition?

I would recommend an earlier TNT with SDS to a friend any day for $2000-2500 give or take a few hundred based on condition.
You can use it , tweak it, and then sell it for what you paid for it. It has already passed the test of time.
And could the potential performance of the VPI MkIII be exceeded or equaled by current model TT's selling at the market value of the used VPI TNT MkIII?
A $2000 TT setup correctly will sound better than a $5000 set up wrong. This is a learned mechanical process. You also have not told us what tonearm is involved or the other tables.
Good Luck.
