I can't imagine that they are worth too much.  I just picked up an II+
  and two drives for $20.

You would probably be surprised if you went and visited your local schools.
  Of the 66 that I deal with I would say that about 35 have functioning
  Apple II+ or IIe labs that they use every day.  It says a lot about
  the durability of those old machines (and a lot of other things as well).
