I just don't think either of them are worth that much. I guess I am lucky (living in a very wealthy area), but I got my B&W G4 (upgraded) for free from the back of someone's truck, and at the recycling place I work for (in exchange for vintage macs /cool PCs/parts) I have fixed 10 towers that they were given for free, many of which are 700MHZ+. Personally I would not have paid $25 for either of them, but it is always great to give a friend a Mac, and I think it is well worth the price. (MUCH better than a $50 iMac G3, I have told the recycling place that they are not really worth the time to fix, and that they could only be able to be sold for $20-$30, so for the most part they are just scrapped xx( ) I also am in charge of pricing the macs, and the only one for sale right now that is comparable to either of these is a $75 (maybe less, can't remember) DP 500MHZ, w/ 256 (or 512, can't remember) RAM, an 80GB HDD, a keyboard and mouse, and a HUGE apple CRT monitor.
