    I'm planning to sell my iPad 3 32gb 4g as i dont need it and get the 64gb wifi only instead. I put a cover on the screen when I got it so it's in perfect condition and have the box etc. Does anyone know where the best place to sell it would be or how much I should expect to sell it for?

    Well they are 700 new according too the apple site so I would suggest asking for 600.

    You can sell it on adverts.ie and donedeal.ie

    You can get new ones that spec for 600e on ebay. I would say you`d be lucky to get 500e.

    Well I just looked at adverts.ie and saw a new unopened iPad 3 16gb 4g for 600 so I assume asking 600 for a 32gb 4g one that iv barely used is reasonable? :confused:

    Why not just return it? If it can be done.....I'd say you will have to take a minimum €100 hit on what you paid depreciation!

    Just because one person on that site is asking a stupid price doesn`t mean you should too. You can safely estimate depreciation of at least 25% which would be 525e which is what I would ask for expecting 500e. I can see you still having this in months if you try to hold out for 600e. There is a limited number of people wiith that dispsable income at the minute and if they have an extra 100e is very little to them so they would just buy it new. Since your desperate to justify putting it on at an unreasonable price (above) your clearly delusional anyway so I`d safely say I`m wasting my time. I only answered because this mentality is driving me nuts!!!

    Ask for 600, prepare to accept 550.

    Why would anyone pay 550e when they can get a brand new exact same spec one for 600e on ebay?

    g81der - I am not desperate or delusional (but thank you :confused: )I posted this question because I don't know what a reasonable asking price for it is, not so you could assume I already knew the answer to my own question and attack me for having some kind of 'mentality' about the price.


    Thanks for the advice everyone :)

    Never said desperate your reading something into something which is not there and you clearly seemed to swallow up that it was worth 600e and thing that was reasonable I was explaining that it was not. We will see...

    What exactly do you think is a reasonable asking/starting price?

    16gb wifi model gone for 450 link

    Would not be too farfetched to look for an extra 150 euro for the 4g capability and 32gb space

    If you went into Harvey Norman and paid an extra €29 you would have a brand NEW one. Cant understand how some people are prepared to pay almost the full amount of money on a second hand product and for a tiny bit more they could have a brand new one without any risks.

    It would have to be €100 cheaper before I would consider buying second hand. An extra 29 euro wont break the bank surely and if it did well then you shouldn't be buying an ipad in the first place.
