Cleaning out my fathers garage and trying to decide what to do with his Apple IIe. Originally I thought it had no value and was going to unbox it and haul it to the electronics recyclers. I happened to check ebay and found that the unidisk 3.5s seem to be saleable. That changed the plan.
I've browsed through the "this is laughable" thread and also looked at some of the sold listings on ebay. As you are all much more in tune with the vintage Apple computing hobby, I thought I would ask here for some advice. I'm trying to determine if it is better to list it all as one big lot, sell the computers individually with the installed cards or part it out and sell it pieces. If I sell it complete, it would be helpful if someone here can give me a clue as to its value.
I'm not trying to retire on selling Apple IIe stuff. I would like to sell it for something that justifies the time spent. The proceeds will go to my mother.
My father was a very neat person who took care of his stuff. I remember in the '80s being bawled out on more than one occasion for not putting the cover back on his computer when I was done using it. The IIe looks new with no discoloration. I have nearly all of the original boxes and documentation.
Here is what I have. Unless otherwise noted, the equipment has been tested and works.
Apple IIe A2S2064 purchased 5/84
The Apple IIe does have the Enhanced chip set.
Apple Mouse II with the controller card. (it appears to work vertically but not horizontally I've not tried to diagnose it yet)

Transwarp card.

3.5 disk interface connected to (2) unidisk drives.

Thank you for any guidance you can provide.
Pics please..
Selling the cards separate would bring more money in the end.
Have a lot of weekend chores to take care of today. Is there something specific you would like to see? I can try to get a few pictures up later this evening.
Thank you. That's what I thought. It's nice to have the confirmation before I took on that project.
