Midwest Apple 2 Serial No. A2S1:0292 for sale

Covers: North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Minesota, Iowa, Missouri, Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, Indiana and Ohio
I assume this means the serial number on the bottom of the case. My serial number 292 falls in this range.
The serial number on the case does not mean anything if the main board inside is not original. If this Apple II was ever in a shop for repair, it may have gotten a new main board. Date codes visible on the pcb and on the chips already showing that either your story being the first owner and owning it since late 1977 (or was it Christmas 1978? :rolleyes: ) is made-up, or you just don't remember any repairs / board swaps that happened to it.

I'm not going to mess with any chips.
So you rather try to sell something based on your claims, ignoring what people suggest you to do in order to correctly identify it?

My understanding is that this would affect market value.
Yes, it will, as it will prove that the main board isn't a rev.0.
