Well, ultimately if you spent a good deal of time on it, making sure it was in tip-top shape, then it's certainly going to sell for more than $25. People like a machine that is openly stated to be fully functional...
... Instead of the usual weasel words... "untested... as is... no guarantees... worked when I turned it on 30 years ago.... I don't have the power supply to test...oh, and it's $1300, and I'll blacklist anyone who asks questions."
Sold on TradeMe with *Pay-Now* for $280 free shipping through out New Zealand (big shipping costs are an auction killer)
I cut one side out of two banana boxes and taped them together, and used bubble wrap saved up from old TM wins,
total cost of shipping $15
there's no way I was going to blacklist anyone, don't see how that helps sell it, even if they dare ask rude questions
like are there any faults or what kind of condition is it in
I admit that I got a little excited when Andreas came back online
when It was listed the first time...
For that much I would want it to have /\*flappy bird*/\ on it...
