Anonymous Freak Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Okay, I'm a greedy bastard, I'm not going to name the other forum for fear that someone will outbid me. It's not an Apple forum. But someone has posted that they just came in possession of a //c Flat Panel Display, has no use for it, and is wondering how much it's worth... I haven't seen any go up for sale on FleaBay recently, so I have no clue. Anyone bought or sold one recently? Have any vague gauge on a value? If my "bid" is sufficiently low that I'd feel guilty taking it for that, I'll happily point people in the right direction. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

luddite Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 It's one of those things that's too uncommon to have a predictable market value... I've seen them go for upwards of $600. If it's the Apple branded one it's got more value to a collector, but I believe the equally rare third-party ones are supposed to be better. Hopefully the seller doesn't really know what he's got and you can swing a good deal... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Anonymous Freak Posted September 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 Seller replied back on the other forum that it's broken, but hasn't replied back again saying HOW. I went ahead and pointed him to both here and the VCF, but haven't seen him post in either location. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paralel Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 If he isn't a technical kind of person "broken" could mean just about anything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Anonymous Freak Posted September 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 Yeah, I reiterated my $50 offer. Haven't heard back in a four days. (Admittedly, it is a holiday weekend here in the U.S., and I took a few extra days off, myself; so the delay may not be a sign of anything bad. He did take a week to reply to my first post, after all.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Osgeld Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 well good luck to you, I would love to have one myself (though I would much rather have that 3rd party one that I can never remember the name of that was a full screen model) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paralel Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 Wait, the Apple model wasn't "full screen"? What exactly do you mean? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Osgeld Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 the apple one is a rectangle, weather it shows a full screen display or not ... I thought not, I thought it was only a half screen (or its squashed bigtime) anyway there was a 3rd party one that had a full 4:3 lcd in it, it was advertised heavily in A+ back when (I will have to dig around my dad's house to see if he still has some of those old magazines) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
luddite Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 The Apple version does show the full screen, but it is quite squashed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
applefreak Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 a IIc starting Multiscribe contrast of the screen should be better Quote Link to post Share on other sites
applefreak Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 third party C-vue full screen : Ator 'The Display' Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Osgeld Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 YES the (display by) ator! thank you (I am just 1 tiny shade less nuts now) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paralel Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 $595 is damn reasonable for an LCD back in those days. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dorkbert Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 I think one went for $185 on fleaBay recently. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
