I now have a Pismo powerbook and an Imac and so I'm trying to sell these Mac powerbooks. The 3500cc has a new battery and is pretty pristine; the 180 barely powers up (it's battery is dead). I see so much conflicting stuff on Ebay--is the 180 really so great that people are willing to overhaul them to the point of being able to get online and what are realistic prices to ask for both? Thanks in advance--I've been mentally torturing myself--seeing prices between $50 and $2000.
Also, I have a Stylewriter II and a Stylewriter 1500 that still work--does anyone care? And while I'm at it, I still have an SE that I'm keeping for now. Can you give me the big picture about what I have going here? Am I clinging to the past needlessly?
Yes, you are ;-)
IMHO, the 180 is not worth much more than $25. The 3500 maybe $150. At least, that's what I would pay. What did you see for $2000 on eBay?
I saw the same listing for a Powerbook 180 for $2000. There were no bids, that was just his asking price. I have one myself, and it's probably worth in the $25-50 range, assuming it works and has a battery. I just keep mine around in case I want to play some really old games...
The 3500c is a bit different. Those can go anywhere from $100-300 on eBay, as they're still somewhat useful. It won't run OSX, but you can still get online, play Wolfenstein 3D, etc.
Just my $0.02.
