I usually get them for free, or free+shipping, or $20+shipping, or so.

The //e simply is not worth much.  Many, many of them were made.  Many
still exist.

I would not be surprised to see an Apple I go for 10 to 15 thousand.  And I
suspect an honest-to-goodness II, with the Integer ROMs, might go for $100
or so, since they're sorta neat.  II+s and //es are basically boat anchors,
although I love playing with them.
