Mark, Golan's guess is on the mark. I am a dealer of 64 HDWR, You can see my
site at www.jppbm.com and wee what I sold my last few refurbs for. The Price
was $50 more when I had a variety of them to choose from about a year ago, and
I just sold my last 'Parts' model on Thursday night, So I will update the site
to 'sold out' later this weekend. But, As a dealer, I have a testing harness
that with test every chip inside the unit. It is MINT when That test says it
is. (and the only way I would sell it with warranty as a business). I can test
the unit for you at TPUG meeting or at my place. and you can take a picture of
the test results as proof of condition internally.
Now , Like I said, I run a business doing this and on occasion do actually pay
for some hardware. So, My standard offer is... $50.oo to fill my van with
everything you have. The cash can be in your hand in one hour from the time you
call. Normally I don't pay for loads less then a van size (I take them as a
donation just to stop it from going to a landfill) , but you have something I
could use in my inventory.

Mark,
My suggestion to you, if it's in such immaculate condition as you claim,
would be to take a bunch of photos of it, and put it up for auction on eBay.
And at a MINIMUM, make it available to ship to Canada and U.S. Even better,
make it available Worldwide. I'd say "top dollar" for an SX-64 in pristine
condition would be about $200, maybe $250... But Golan's guess is probably
more realistic. Don't kid yourself into thinking you'll get your $2600 back
for a 20+ year old computer. Now... if you had a *DX-64*... that would be
an entirely different story! ;-)
