There is an IBM 5100 on eBay right now: https://www.ebay.com/itm/314137209812 <https://www.ebay.com/itm/314137209812>
In 2018 I saw a BASIC model sell for $2500. I’ve seen a working APL model sell for $6150 in 2021. I’ve been keeping track of Lisa 1 sales on eBay for some years. I take a screenshot of the finished auction and also save all of the photos. They sell for a lot, and I wonder if they will one day be priced like Apple 1 computers? I remember when Apple 1 computers were going for $10K - $20K, and now they go for the price of a house. Twiggy drives only: Mar 14, 2017 : $32,100.52 Face plate only : Mar 14, 2017 : $4,602 Complete Lisa 1 system: Apr 25, 2017 : $99,500 May 11, 2017 : $55,300 Jan 14, 208 : $56,100 Mar 25, 2018 : $55,300 Nov 11, 2018 : $65,000 (did not sell, later marked as “no longer available”) Sep 7, 2019 : $43,900 obsol33t > On Sep 3, 2022, at 7:16 PM, Sellam Abraham via cctalk <cctalk@classiccmp.org> > wrote: > > I think there's a rather large disparity in value between the two systems. > I'm not sure what an IBM 5100 would go for these days, but a Lisa 1 will > generally sell in the $10K+ range minimum these days. > > I had two Lisa's with Twiggy drives: one I sold for $9,600, and the other > for $14,500.
