Thing is, $4k, just isn't some impossible amount
of money to spend on
something you want. Personally I would have stopped bidding at $50, maybe
$100, and didn't bother to bid since it was way above that the first peek I
took. I don't want it that bad, and frankly still expect to find something
not too far from it cheap, and I do like looking.
I'm happy with the Apple ][s I have, but none as early as this one.
You have to wonder though, if one of us HAD just this
unit, and nothing
else even close to it in terms of original etc. condition, would $3850 pry
it away?
Nope.
The other thing I am curious about is if this is just
a box of stuff this
person found, or is it something pieced together to make the most
attractive eBay listing?
It is the original system.
