Let me know if you get any takers, I have some beige G3 parts from towers as well. The pair is currently being used :facepalm: as stands for an improvised wooden shelf.

I think it’s your presentation. Perhaps there would be more interest if it was like this:

“Rare and classic G3 parts. These were practically new parts from the fastest home computer of its time. These won’t last long, especially at these prices. Interest has been through the roof but I’m posting it here for my friends on the MR Forum before I list these beauties on eBay where they are selling for huge sums. I have nine parts available and I’m going to limit each forumite to only two of these exquisite designs from the world’s largest company. Don’t wait long because I guarantee these rare items will go quickly. Great stocking stuffers for your young grandkids and an item that is sure to appreciate in value, perhaps enough to pay for their college educations.”

That's hilarious - let's see if it works...

I'm also curious about the Apple EULA for Mac OS/macOS - if I put a motherboard and other components in a Beige G3 case and use something like OpenCore to boot macOS, is that not legitimately an "Apple labelled" hardware?

I just put one of those white Apple stickers on the front of my hackintosh case. No lawyers here!
