I bought my PowerBook 540c for $100 from the VCF East 2022 Swap Meet. It came with the charger as well, which uses a really weird plug. It's plastics are pretty battered up - many scratches, a section of the bottom case on the front is cracked in several places, pieces held in with tape. There's another crack near the back, and the hinge standoffs are on their way out. Plastic issues aside, it works perfectly and is a great system to use. Both batteries and covers are unfortunately missing though.
