Boxed Apple IIe/AppleColor Composite Monitor/ImageWriter II for $100

Posted by: JRL on 2016-05-22 01:20:14 Hey all, haven't posted in the forum for a hot minute. Glad to see things are still going strong though. I got an Apple IIe (enhanced) with the Apple color composite monitor and Imagewriter II, all boxed, for $100. Only took a quick cellphone pic, but here it is (the IIe box is rough but the other boxes look great and I doubt the Imagewriter was used more than a few times)  I was really hesitant as the guy sold it as untested, and $100 was probably the most I've paid for a CL find (negotiated the guy down from $200). But it worked fine.  I also got around 20-25 blanks, some misc software (educational stuff), and some old brand new ribbons (probably dried out) Pretty excited as this is my first complete II series system! (you can also see that I can't program Applesoft BASIC to save my life)

Posted by: Andrew T. on 2016-06-28 09:41:20 $100 may not be free, but I think it was a reasonable price for a desirable system with accessories and components in clean, complete, boxed, and working order. The beige color composite monitors are relatively uncommon in my experience (the green-screen monitors were more common until the "platinum" era), and I don't think I've ever seen a beige ImageWriter II. So, great find! Enjoy! I'll be looking forward to seeing more.
