Back in 2000 I picked up 6 complete GS systems (mostly ROM3 but 1 Woz ROM1) plus some other Apple II stuff for free from the wife of an Apple II collector who had just died. He had collected well over 250 systems, mostly Apple IIgs but plently of earlier Apple II's, and printers, etc. She just wanted the stuff gone, and anything left was thrown out-but almost all of it was taken after a few days.
Most of the items apparently came from thift stores, and still had stickers ranging in price from $15-$35. So the husband thought they were worth something, but not his wife. -Jeff -----Original Message----- From: Apple2list [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Warren 'Llama' Ernst Sent: Friday, November 04, 2005 7:03 PM To: Apple2list Subject: Re: Did the WOZ edition come as a ROM 0? Regarding rarety and price for Rom01 GS'es: Last month, I picked up 9 (that's NINE) GS CPU's from ebay from a single vendor. These are all sans cards and pretty much everything but the CPU box itself. I paid $3 (three dollars) each for 6 working units, and $1.50 for three units that were not working for whatever reason. And since the seller happened to be local, he even drove them by my place and dropped them off. Boy, was my wife happy...NOT. Anyway, just a data point... -Warr On Fri, 4 Nov 2005 18:40:43 -0500, Rich Martin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > ROM 01 GS' are certainly the most common, and you can pick the CPU > unit (without drives, monitor, keyboard/mouse) for cheap on Ebay.
