I think there's a rather large disparity in value

I'm not sure what an IBM 5100 would go for these days, but a Lisa 1 will
generally sell in the $10K+ range minimum these days.
I had two Lisa's with Twiggy drives: one I sold for $9,600, and the other
for $14,500. That was over 8 years ago.

Well, it ain't in the 5150/5160 range!
The 5100 new was $10K to $20K.
I haven't seen any available in a long time; although one sold on eBay in
June for $10K.
I had a standing offer for Jon Titor, that in exchange for a one-way ride
back 60 years, I would get him a 5100 (with BASIC and APL), AND, set up a
stock portfolio in the 1960s to fund his activities.
