A decked ot GS with a 230MB external hard drive, seven peripheral
cards, a large memory card plus the 1MB Apple one floating around
in the closet, a modem, and a printer (possible DeskJet) will fetch
3 digit prices IF the user BREAKS UP the system and sell EACH
separate piece SEPARATELY.

One only has to look at what each piece sells for and add them up
to realize this.  Most IIGS users have more than 10 pieces of
software, yet IIGS software typically sells used for at least $5 each.
Thus, by selling each software separately, your IIGS unit is assured
to go for MORE than the $50 Mitch was trying to pass off.
