Well hey, it even comes with the keyboard. What a steal of a deal.
And I like that it also comes with "floppy discs". Mystery grab bag.
Maybe one of the floppies has the secrets of the universe on it?

Those "mystery grab bags" can work both ways.

Sometimes it's someone with an inflated sense of their value, and the box
is just routine junk, with a terribly inflated price.

Other times I'm sure it works out better, they barely want anything for
it, yet one thing alone is valuable.

Of course, there was that time I found a Grappler in a box of stuff on the
sidewalk. That older Wacom tablet I found a this summer, with serial
interface, would be a much better find if I'd realized I needed the
stylus, because who knows if it was among the other junk or not, but I
didn't think to look.

That's nothing. Here's another on eBay Australia with 1+ days to go,
and it's already at $1,285.00:
