How many TI-99/2's were made?

[cbmeeks]

I've only learned about this computer (read about it in my 99'er magazine).

 

Anyone know how many were made?

How often do they come up for sale?  I imagine they are quite expensive when they do.

 

Thanks!

There are probably between 10 and 20 of them scattered about within the community--and unknown examples pop up now and again. As to prices, you won't see one for less than $1,000 to $1,500, and possibly more, depending on who is hunting at the time. I have one that I bought several years ago. They do come up for sale now and again too--about once every year or two.
