So, anyone want to comment on why this A-1 went for $60k? Seems awfully low. Do you think the market has dropped, now that people are forgetting about Steve Jobs? Some other reason? - Alex
Retro is in but the economy should be taking a downturn soon? Of course the people dropping $900K on a board made of $80 in parts probably aren't the ones affected. Someone pointed out the other day that some of the pinball mania has sloped off as well. Fairly new machines that went from $5000 to $9000 are down to $6000-6500. Not sure what is going on in collectable cars but perhaps people are moving to holding cash versus money chasing collectables/hard goods? As far as jumper wires on Apple-1 you could you know, remove them? And swap chips back to original date code/era? Also, on that note, which of the replica PCBs are the best? I saw the Italian one on eBay it looked similar?
