@Rhodestorelief Those are the more coveted 66 MHz A/V version of the PowerMac 6100. Slightly faster BUS, CPU, and includes A/V card (if they're still in there.)
Nah, I'm sure someone will want them. I'm mostly kidding about the Performa name. Well, except maybe the 6200. That was genuinely a bad Mac. But there are people who like them anyway.
Everything is for sale
What would you value that at sir? And yea these machines are all complete came from school here in sj YEARS ago. Computer/technology teacher among other things
Berlin NJ I sell on ebay regularly. I can guarantee anything i ship arrives unscathed
PM5300 should be local pickup only. It's impossible to get one of those shipped without damage.
Not impossible, improbable. Just has to be suspended properly. You wanna build these guys a nice little cloud. Not cram them tight with hard padding
Believe me when I say that many, many people have tried. Even with the best packing in the world, maybe 1 in 10 make it undamaged. The plastic is so incredibly brittle on those that picking it up the wrong way will break parts of the case. It's like shipping a Power Macintosh 5300-sized egg.
Lmao I hear you. I do have it sitting in front of me. Except for this she's solid

Ah yes, a "chip in the eggshell" so to speak. My PM5400 has one of those. Same case.
Value on those varies. I paid (edit: i forget actually, I don't think it was $150. I want to say it was either $100 or $125) for my 5400 (local pickup) but the 5400 is known as the "first good one" from the models with that case as the 5200 and 5300 models were all pretty slow. Value on those may be lower, depends on the buyer. Due to the shipping issues they rarely sell on eBay so value is hard to track.

Yes that was my issue. Only thing listed is parts. I think I'll package this bad boy up and post a video later of me kicking the box. Then maybe a 1 foot drop. Then maybe if my cocky ass isn't upset from failure I'll list it with link to Said video. Then maybe I'll set a record lmao. Oh and this is the LC version. A bit more to work with
Why risk damaging it? Plenty of east coast collectors are out there, someone will pick it up local.
worth about $50
$60 each maybe if the cases aren't completely crumbled
worth about $50 each
