Feeler:1999 Revision D Bondi iMac G3,super Rare.

[Sonicjet]

I have an 333Mhz iMac G3,It is in ok condition with the biggest problem being a missing I/O Door,otherwise it is in great condition,not a scratch.
As you can see it has an very unusual color,that was supposedly never made for an Revision D Imac, Bondi Blue!
The Machine's Serial Confirms the odd color and hardware and searching turned up the fact that I have the only Documented Bondi D,the last model with this color was the Rev. B model,Discontinued 5 Months before mine was made.
Running OS 9.2 and has a 256mb(+32Mb) Memory module in it along with a new Pram battery.

I'm just wondering what a rare machine as this might be worth...thanks!

$10-$20 bucks...maybe $50 tops...if you find someone who's been living under a rock!

I happen to have a "rare" Mac IIfx from 1990...that originally sold for $10,000-$12,000 dollars. Guess how much I paid for it...ZERO$$$!

Sorry...this isn't going to be a big boost to your retirement plan!

p.s. By the way...the colors for the original iMacs can be "fooled" with by simply swapping the "colored" parts from earlier or later generation CRT iMacs.

as Pigoo3 said you probably won't get more that 50 from it. Most of the cost will be in shipping since they are pretty dang heavy little machines. I saw one (same model I believe) at good will not long ago. I was extremely tempted to purchase it because it was only 21 dollars, I decided not to though since I really have no use for it. Quite sad to tell you the truth. They are still to this day attractive little machines. Just stinks that web standards take such a hard toll on older hardware like this. Makes them almost unusable for even basic web surfing.

Hope you find a buyer though! They are still great for the kids to learn on or to tinker with!

I don't mean to discourage you from selling.

Send it to Gunny on Mail Call. Maybe he can blow it up in some cool way on TV for you?

I have a feeling based on all you have told us it is a rare Rev D machine. Still though unless you find some sort of a collector of Macs that would want it and kill for it, I agree with Pigoo, maybe $50 tops.

I own a Rev D Grape with same specs as yours. The Grape was a normal color for the Rev D. I paid $125 used for it MINI maybe 5 years ago now. It's probably worth $35 as it sits now.

Looking at your pictures, that is for sure Bondi Blue color. Also the old Bondi Blue iMacs had the IR sensor as part of the Left speaker grill which yours does not. The Bondi Blue iMac also had the Mezzanine slot which yours does not. Very strange machine for sure!
