    Depends on quite a few factors. You need GOOD pictures of the front, back insides that people can see chips with.



    A word of advice, if you want more then scrap for these old collectable relics you need to invest in a used $10 10MP+ camera off of ebay with a camera tripod (also cheap) and a clean well lit spot to take pictures. Buyers want to see the guts, serial numbers, board numbers, cards installed, etc. in clear detail. There are multiple models of the 5150 from the low serial number original 64K motherboard to many newer revisions that are worth MUCH less. A camera tripod makes a huge difference between shacky pictures and clear ones, also good lighting helps a bunch. There are multiple revisions of the ROMs and power supplies for these units, some worth much more then others.
