The way I see it is that you have a basic 7500 system, used, that a 
sharp, aware buyer can get for $1800 and you have the added hardware as 
follows:
40 megs ram @ $50 for 8 megs (used)     = $300
extra 1.2 gig hd                        = $180
extra syquest + carts (44)              = $100
extra burnoulli (old model)             = $100
original apple sweet 16 monitor         = $500   whatever that is??
------------------------------------------
total                                   = 2880 at best offering... 
the rest is not yours to sell or even use as an incentive is it? Unless 
you are transfering ownership and if that be the case you are fool to 
sell it so cheap....

Maybe $2900 would be good offer, but as to where the auction will take 
it, I don't see any higher value that the $2900 here.  I for one would 
not be interested in the removables at all and without knowing the model 
on the apple monitor, would probably not want that.  Why will you not 
sell it as a system only... I think you might do better for you money 
that way?
