Q: .  What is it worth?

I have an iMac 512k with developers signatures etched in the inside of the machine.  How much do you think this would be worth?

iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

    Every Macintosh 512k has the signatures on the inside cover. It is worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it.

    Check Craigslist listings for your area and nearby communities. That is a good way to see what people are asking for old Macs by region. eBay is also a good gauge but you must pay attention to the location of the seller.

    I have found the best way to evaluate an items current worth is to search the item you have on eBay and on the left hand side there are refinement options - you may use these if you want to make it more exact but if you tick completed listings all of the results that come up with a green price tag sold for the price you see and therefore thats roughly about how much you'll get

    I notice that the posts relate to the 512k but what about the 128k with signatures? Does the same apply?

    Hi,

    These macs models are worth lots.

    If you have the kit (Mouse, keyboard, box and the rest) People on ebay are probably willing to pay 300-1000$. In an auction I would start the bid at around 350$.

    It depends on the condition. For parts, I would pay around 50-75$

     

    Cheers,

    Sam
