I bought used-in-box copies of Hypercard 2.1 and Claris Resolve. Neither were expensive. The Claris Resolve box was flimsy for all the manuals it held and got torn. The Hypercard 2.1 box was made of very thick cardboard. It contained many manuals, each 300-500 pages in length. It also had a Quick-Reference sheet and a registration card. I sent in the registration card just to see if anything would happen. Nothing did though. I also bought a NIB copy of Musicshop which had a brief but informative manual. It was about $30. I also got a NIB Apple Extended Keyboard II for $50. I think you can still buy them from We Love Macs. It's the best keyboard I ever used. The last NIB thing I ever got was a Quadra 700 accessory kit. It was $12.50. It's full of everything that came with a Quadra 700. The things in it are untouched. It has a NIB Apple Microphone and a ADB Mouse I in it's original plastic. This also has System 7, System 7 Tuneup, Hypercard Player 2.1, Network Software Update, and many manuals. I'm preserving this. I like getting old boxed software. Unless it's really special, I open it up. Although some old software will be probably collectable someday, I would never sell any.
