If your on the lookout for an SE/30 or other old Mac, here are some handy-dandy guidelines to get a decent price:
1. Don't just look in the classifieds. 99% of the people there ask too much for what they're selling, and I ended up paying $80 for my 8/250 SE/30 this way. Unless something changed dramatiucally over the past few months _very rarely_ will you find someone asking anything less than an exorbanant amount. 2. eBay is your friend. However, when you go there with a specific model of computer in mind, (SE/30 in this case) you'll find yourself waiting around for a long time. Also try sold.com.au 3. Try usenet. IIRC, people buy and sell things regularly in aus.computers.mac. Just remember that you'll have no recourse if someone screws you over. 4. Anyone here got an SE/30 they want to sell? Personally, I wouldn't pay more than $50 dollars, and that would be for a high RAM/HD machine in as-new condition.
