Apple II GS pickup

I personally have a IIGS and a IIE(which is upgrade to max), I like both of them.
Just depends on what you want to do. What does it come with? i hope you get a Memory card also what rom version is it? the early one (ROM 00)is better for compatibility with the older Apple IIE games and Apps where as the later Rom (ROM 01, 03) is better for for the newer OS and Apps also better expandability.
AT $50 for an Apple IIGS (as long as you get a memory card) is a good price.

I forgot to add sound is average, better off getting a sound card or using apps that use integer Basic.
But the Apple IIE and IIGS games are great I still love playing Captain Goodnight, Conan, StarBlasers, Astec and Lode Runner...
You can also make a serial cable to hook it up to a PC (Like i do) and transfer you Apple II stuff to disk or HDD.
I dont regret getting them, just dont have too much time for them  :-( .
