Ebay is probably a good source for this sort of thing. Prices on a lot of things are overheated at the moment of course, but it looks to be maybe a few hundred dollars. I have some old computer stuff at home but it's far from mint condition and whenever I looked didn't seem to be worth the hassle of selling and shipping it.
depends on whether you have the floppy drives in good condition, if the on board battery hasn’t exploded, if the power supply caps need replacing… Look up your local vintage computer festival, there’s always tables set up to sell your wares.
The on board battery was used on the Apple 2 GS, the 16 bit successor to the 8 bit Apple 2.
The GS used a 65816 CPU, and the Apple 1 and 8 bit Apple 2 computers used 6502 and 65C02 CPU chips.
A 65802 can be installed into the 8 bit computers, with the 64K address space limitation imposed by the hardware.
A bit of digging can get one an Apple 8 but computer for a few hundred bucks, sometimes cheaper, depending.
I got my //e Platinum a decade ago for $150'ish from Apple Rescue of Denver. At that time, it came with one disk drive, Super Serial card, and the 128K / 80 column display card.
Anyone interested in these machines could skip getting a disk drive, though using floppies a few times is fun, and go for a emulation card. I do recommend the CFFA 3000 card, if available. Those can take disk images right from an ordinary USB flash drive.
