Hey guys. First post. I am trying to recapture some of my good childhood memories, and I am looking for an IBM 5170 AT PC. It was my first PC after my C64 era (just bought one of those), and the PC that propelled me into the video game industry.

I am looking for something in really good/mint condition. Also, I really don't know what to expect to pay for something like that, so if anyone could comment on that

My e-mail is doplussee@gmail.com

Thanks.

Mint Condition IBM 5170 might set you back over a grand.
 
There are also several variations and many options to consider. I'd check out ebay taking your time you should be able to find a nice one in the 300-400 range. Don't get caught up in a bidding war let it go and wait for another for the best price. It takes time but I've seen a mint one in the $200 range a while ago. Prices very widely, good or bad ones. Good Luck
