Me too, but I didn't get the courtesy of a reply. But wow, he's fast.
Already has it boxed up for shipping, does he? Right. What a dick. But
I gotta say, the buyer is an even bigger dick.

There's no
guarantee it's an Apple 1. The seller says only he can see
"wires and cards" inside. Perhaps it is an Apple ][ in a wooden case?
Nobody knows, and without pictures, nobody will know.
I asked the seller for some pictures "under the hood" of that machine,
and was told that it had already been boxed up for shipment. I'd imagine
that if the really thought it was an Apple I, he'd oblige, so it seems
clear that he expected to gain more from the uninformed speculation of
the potential buyers.
