Well your rev-4 setup isn't going to be worth top dollar because of the condition and
clone motherboard, you don't mention if it's the original datanetics keyboard and
if the powersupply is the original one. Infact it may only be worth a couple of hundred
dollars or less.
Basically the answers to those questions determine if you are simply selling a case or a
case with extras. Notice I didn't say you are selling a Rev4 Apple II because the
motherboard is missing.
Also depending on the hole that was drilled also that can impact the value a lot for a
case since people looking for a case want a good condition one.
Answer those questions and we will give you a good idea.
As for the Rev 2. In the condition explained I'd expect maybe 2k. btw. Rev 0 are
going for more 3k if they are in complete condition. Most aren't. They tend to have
replacement parts like supply or keyboard. If the motherboard is replaced they are just a
case.
Also with anything timing is important, if a person is looking at the time, they may spend
more than if no one is looking at that specific time. I have seen eBay auctions sometimes
too late and kicked my self how low something went for. You just never know.

I have a rev 4 Apple II in the 38000 s/n range. I'm hoping to, over the
years, gradually trade my way up to a Rev 0. I've seen Rev 0 units go on
ebay recently for around $3000ish. Below that seems to be a jumble, mostly
to do with completeness, originality, etc. Although, no always. Some have
had motherboards upgraded to newer versions and still gone for $2500.
Anyway, I'm looking to move up. My questions (and I realize this is all
opinion):
1) What would my Apple II rev 4 be worth? Again it's serial number is
in the 38000 range, black label. It was in France and had its original
board replaced with a clone board, and some customization including a small
switch for power that was drilled into the back of the case was done. I
have installed a Rev 4 board with Integer Basic chips. I also did some
repairs on the keyboard and it is fully functional, but the repairs involved
a couple of jumper wires to deal with bad traces.
2) What would you be willing to pay for a 12000 range s/n Rev 2 that is
in so/so condition, some rusty chip legs and non-functional keyboard? Is a
Rev 2 anything special?
Thanks!
