Nope. It was in crap condition, majorly cut traces, holes drilled for standoffs in the Proto area and a lot of replacement parts.
This is what I posted on the VCF forum and pretty much covers it.
$60,300 not too far off the last eBay sale of a damaged board a few years ago, the Huston-2 board. Funny thing is not a few weeks after the Huston-2 sale we had a record Apple-1 sale of a working system for many times that amount.
So I guess we have established a poor condition Apple-1 fetches between 60k and 75k on eBay and a working unit fetches between 300k and 910k at an art auction depending on the condition of the board and accessories.
Interesting. It's still hard to see that kind of differential, to me. But then, I never did understand why the A-1 commands the prices that it does. There are much rarer machines, and much as I do revere Woz, a non-unique home computer shouldn't command over $100k, IMO. - Alex
