Apple-1 Auction conclusion

No. If I had one, I'd put it out in the driveway next to the dumpster, having
extracted the PSU, which is the only part of an Apple product, and not all of
them at that, that's of any use.

For example, I had a MacIIx that I got for $3 a couple of weeks back, offered
it to anyone willing to pay the freight, including the video card and ethernet
board, and got no takers. I stripped the RAM and PLD's from the ethernet
board, saved the PSU, and put the rest out for the trash.

Besides, nobody's dumb enough to take one for free, let alone steal one.
They'd buy it at auction because it's an auction.
