A fairly large change in my life is about to result in the loss of most of my storage space, so most of my collection of Macs (and a few other bits and bobs) is up for grabs.
Shipping can be arranged at buyer's cost. Local pickup is available in Olivia, Willmar, Paynesville, Cold Spring, St. Cloud, or within a reasonable distance of the previous. Further distances within MN or the Fargo area can be arranged, with compensation for fuel consumption. All prices are negotiable. Photos will be uploaded upon request. If many items are bought together and picked up locally, prices are very flexible. Non-working machines can have parts removed and shipped alone, though added cost for labor will be included. Payment will be accepted in cash, via local check or through PayPal.

Trades for things interesting enough to use what precious little storage space I'll have will be readily accepted. These are the following:
-Power Macintosh 9600 (I will gladly take the 'poor' end of a trade for a 604ev (300 or 350 Mhz) unit in excellent condition. I am quite keen on obtaining one. Lesser models or poorer examples will be gladly accepted, but don't hold as advantageous a position.)
-Powerbook 5300C/CE (with plastics in good condition, good hinges, and an either completely undamaged or well-repaired power jack)
-Powerbook G3 (Kanga)
- G4-upgraded and/or cosmetically flawless Pismo Powerbook (working batteries are a plus)

All items have been tested on date of original posting unless specified otherwise.
This listing was first posted on LEM Swap and 68kMLA, and all items are also available from those locations.

PowerMac G4 Quicksilver, Beautiful Condition - $100
- 1.0Gb PC133 RAM (Original Apple DIMM is included but not installed)
- Original GeForce 2 MX

- Original "Important Apple Software Proof-of-Purchase Coupons", original user's manual, and Welcome to Mac OS X booklet
- Original translucent power cable
- Original mouse/keyboard set is included, but in much poorer condition than the rest of the equipment mentioned here, as this unit was originally in use by a public library- input devices were badly used and abused, but everything else spent its life safely locked away in a well-ventilated under-table tray.
- Set of Apple Pro Speakers available below
- Matching 17" ADC Studio Display available below
- Additional software available below
(marked in blue)
- $140 for unit with all blue items

Performa 450, Beautiful Condition - $60
- Used exclusively out of sunlight since original purchase and stored likewise since discontinuation of use- Yellowing is little to none.
- No evidence of damaged caps
- 8 Mb RAM installed
- 120Mb SCSI HDD installed
- First booted on Saturday, Feb. 13, 1993 at 10:48 AM, according to About This Mac menu of original, untouched factory System 7.1P1 installation

- MacCheck does not find any hardware issues
- Includes original Apple Keyboard II (w/ coiled cable) and Wedge Mouse
- Floppy drive injects and ejects speedily and without sticking
- Includes matching original Apple power cable
- Matching original Personal Laserwriter 300 available below


PowerMac G3 (B&W) 300s, For Parts - $10, 2 available (UNTESTED) (1 sold via other posted locations, 1 remains)
- 256Mb PC133
- Stock RAGE 128 card
- Haphazard arrangement of PCI blanks
- (as best recalled) Power on, but do not display anything or accept any form of input- can verify condition (and provide more detail) upon request
- CD-ROM drives
- Original hard drives may be included, or 20Gb disk may be included (depending on whether or not original drive is still mounted)
- Carry handles marked '300' with black Sharpie
- Assorted scuffs on cases


LC III, yellowed, working - $20
- No obviously damaged caps, all original
- No HDD
- Single-floppy lid
- Floppy drive ejects well
- Black sharpie on all sides of case
- Unknown quantity of TI-branded RAM, unable to easily find qty as my System 7.1 disks have degraded and are no longer bootable


Performa 636CD, poor cosmetic condition, working - $5
- 20Mb RAM Included
- 33Mhz 68LC040
- 260Mb HDD
- Case is badly yellowed, has interesting brown spots in places, has sticker residue on front panel, and is missing rear panel plastics
- FDD doesn't eject very forcefully, but is functional
- CD drive works


Performa 6116CD, decent cosmetic condition, Questionable working condition - $5
- Spec sheet not available, as machine is not displaying video
- When last used a few years ago, machine was working well, but when tested for this listing's sake, system chimed and yelled at me about an incorrectly set clock, but no video was displayed. I suspect that my formerly intermittent multimedia display output to normal Apple monitor adapter bit the dust in the meantime.
- Includes probably faulty display adapter
- Front panel power switch is missing its plastic button, but switch is accessible and works. Front left foot decided to quit its day job and become a paperweight- has been taped back in place. Case is otherwise in reasonable shape, but mildly grungy.


Performa 6400/180, needs cleaning but otherwise in good shape, working - $20
- Internal subwoofer works, and makes startup chime unexpectedly... profound.
- 16Mb RAM
- 1.5Gb HDD
- CD drive works well
- UTP Ethernet module installed


Power Macintosh 6500/250, good cosmetic condition, not working - $5
- Cache and UTP Ethernet modules installed
- No RAM
- ZIP 100 Drive
- Working internal subwoofer


Power Macintosh 5500/225, decent condition, not working - $10
- When connected to power, CRT can be heard to have power, but when machine is powered on, internal CRT does not power on, and power light does not illuminate
- Stock 2Gb HDD, upgraded RAM- all slots filled, but exact quantity unknown. Cache slot filled.
- When last used (several months ago, was working), FDD and CD-ROM drive worked.
- Chimes on startup
- Case mildly yellowed, has Sharpie markings on various surfaces and a small asset tag on the front-left side.
- UTP Ethernet module installed


Power Macintosh 5200/75LC, acceptable condition, working - $30
- To the best of my knowledge, the only Road Apple in my collection, and Dan Knight thinks it's literally the worst Mac ever made.
- Includes velcro-mounted swing-arm document holder
- Has paint-like discoloration on CD eject button
- Sharpie marking on left side of case
- In active use by a teacher from 1997-2011 (another unique trait among my collection, which brings some degree of sympathy for the poor fellow who ended up using it for so long)
- 64Mb RAM
- 2Gb HDD
- L2 Cache slot filled
- UTP Ethernet module installed... which means the printer port doesn't work. Because PM5200.


Macintosh Classic, very good condition, working - $30 SOLD to Thor2026
- Screen is bright, clear, and tack-sharp.
- Small sharpie mark on rear of case, but is otherwise in very nice cosmetic condition with minimal yellowing and no obvious scuffs. Rear display pot cover is missing.
- Original Keyboard II and Wedge Mouse are included
- Screen is clear, bright, and sharp
- Internal 40Mb SCSI disk works well and runs very quietly considering the machine's age

- Includes matching Apple power cord


iMac G3 (Rev D), poor condition, working - $10
- Strawberry
- Large amount of Sharpie marks on all sides, stickers in various locations, assorted residue

- Tray-loading CD-ROM
- 6Gb HDD
- 64Mb RAM

Vtech Laser 128 Apple ][(c/e?) clone, decent condition, working - $20 SOLD to tbtorro
Powers on, internal FDD seems alright, as verified by SWAG-method testing. Display output works fine, as does the keyboard. I simply don't have appropriate disks to do any further testing. Includes original PSU.

Hi, would like some information on the PM 6500/250, (Power Macintosh 6500/250, good cosmetic condition, not working - $5)

Does the machine power on at all and not boot - i.e. is the PSU still good? I have a fully working MB and addons that I could use this PM6500 for if so. And how much for shipping to the UK?

Thanks

Unfortunately, the time I had to slim down my collection has passed, and I've put what remains in long-term storage. Things are still accessible if need be, but the logistics of digging units out, re-testing them, packing, and shipping simply isn't realistic right now. I may re-list what's left in a year or two when I have the time to do so, but sales at this time are not possible. My apologies for the inconvenience.
