Looks fun, but the only red flag to me is that it's missing the stand, and is maybe a tad scuffed up in the back.

Could be a fun machine, will run OS9/10 and has been upgraded a little.

The stand was never bundled, it was always an add-on, so this is just someone who didn't buy it for theirs, or if they did, lost it along the way.

Do you want it? $35 is a pretty good deal and it looks like it would be ready to go.

$35 is a great deal for an eMac, they're getting pretty uncommon.

It is a great deal, I found a few more near me...they are going for $50 from this guy.  I don't know how many he has, but I'm gonna find out!

It is cheap enough that you could play around with it and decide if you want to ditch it later without losing much money.

Finding OS 9 booting G4s is getting harder with time if you like that OS.
