That is a nice collection there - but is it really worth that much? I 
could see if the serial numbers on any of the computers was low (like 
0-99 or whatever is equiv) - but let's be real here. The Color Computer 
isn't exactly a collector's item, yet - you still see them on occasion 
in Goodwill stores! I think this guy, whoever they are, is trying to 
cash in on something that isn't there (kinda like I saw a P3-450 in the 
newspaper going for $500 when I know it is only worth $100, if that).
