To be honest, they seem to be fetching about $20-30 generally. The Woz 
edition isn't that rare and people get more use out of a ROM 01 or 03 
(non-upgraded Woz's are ROM 00, and actually are quite thin on the ground).

Don't know about the AE drive, the 3.5" one seems to be a $10 item - I 
want another but shipping is expensive :/

Richard (building a nice IIgs system in the UK is an expensive task. I 
can't remember what I paid for the whole lot but I suspect it's around 
$450 - for my ROM 01 (Freeish) upgraded to ROM 03 with 5Mb RAM ($90), 
TWGS ($120), AE Audio Animator ($100), RamFAST Rev. D ($90), 3.5", 2 x 
5.25" ($60, or maybe $20 depending in the UK or US source I got drives 
from) and a 2nd hand Woz case (Workstation card) which means I actually 
end up with another ROM 01 machine!).
