I'll admit, they are uncommon but not rare. I myself bought a complete
working /// with functioning profile and matching monitor for <$15 at a radio
rally. Apple ///s on ebay have seen up to $200 and more and that's without
the hard drive. A few years back, i gave a broken one to a friend who
subsequently ebayed it and got $60 for it!
