And it is that we have been seeing for a long time that these first models of the Cupertino company are sold at auctions for really high prices. Obviously the equipment has to work well and you have to find the perfect buyer, but in general, as I said in the headline of this article, to have an Apple I is to have a treasure.
Nothing more and nothing less than $ 375.000 is what has been achieved by the sale of one of these fully functional equipment. Taking into account that in their day these teams cost 666 dollars when Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, got down to work to market these teams in Byte Shop, we can say that they were undoubtedly a very good investment.
It is true that in other auctions some Apple I equipment similar to this one that was auctioned yesterday has raised more money than this time, although it is also true that very few equipment are actually working and therefore prices will continue to fluctuate up and down. below depending on your state. It must also be said that some media calculate that there could be about 200 functional Apple I's today worldwide.
The auction in this case it is already closed and the museum piece (the Apple I) was completely restored to make it 100% functional. In this case the score after restoration reached 8,5 points out of 10, so we can say that it is a totally new and well restored machine. In any case, getting this amount of money for a team like this is really amazing, although it is true that It is not the highest figure obtained by one of these Apple I placed up for auction.
