A fair price?

savemejebus · 10-01-2006 3:01pm #1

I think i'm going to be selling my ibook soon to fund an upgrade and was wondering would anyone know what a fair guideline price for this machine would be.

Ibook G3 500mhz
10 Gig Hdd,
CD rom drive,
320 mb ram,
2 x USB, 1 x Firewire

It's out of guarantee but has recently had it's logic board replaced under the extension programme.

Thanks

€400? €300 maybe?

I'd have said 400 if it comes with OSX install disks

No DVD drive though, only 10Gb too.
320 Mb RAM is fair enough for a machine of that age.

I'd going to go €350. You'd maybe get a little more, though not a lot.

It can't read DVDs?

I would say 250-300 tops for a 500Mhz with CDROM does it have an Airport Card?

Of course it depends on where you are selling it. Some examples on ebay fior reference:

In the BnS you might even get as much as 400-450 if you push it

A fair price?
