FEELER: 1GHz G4 Titanium PowerBook

[Allotriophagy]

Original install disks.
Two batteries, one holds three hours, the other used to but then randomly died.
USB floppy disk drives x 2 (ooooh)
512MB RAM
Airport card
60GB HD
Superdrive, 64MB Radeon 9000, etc etc

Fairly nice condition - no peeling/chipping. Not sure if there are dead pixels as I cannot see any but I am half blind. No dents. A few little scratches.

Prices are all over the place on eBay!

What are the original install discs (what OS and programs).

Will you take a church business check?

What are your price expectations?

[Allotriophagy]

It has 10.4 on it but I suspect the original disks are 10.2. I will have to check when I get home. It doesn't come with any additional software since I do not want to give up my boxed sets, media and serials.

A business cheque would be fine, if it comes with an appropriate letter approving the cheque.

I paid about £500 for it nearly two years ago. I think I would be very pleased with anything around the £400 mark, but wonder if that is perhaps unreasonable. Yet I see machines in worse condition than mine and without Airport cards (which are fetching insane prices on their own) going for £350 to £550!

I'm just worried the longer I hold onto it, the less it will fetch when I do come to sell it.

Ok, but sorry, sounds like you're in the UK - we are in the USA.

if this is any help, i recently sold my 1Ghz/1GB RAM/Superdrive Titanium powerbook in average condition for US$550

I was about to say 500-600, They are probably going to be the only powerbooks left to be able to dual boot leopard and OS 9. I bought mine last year for 475 shipped, but the superdrive was failing.

[Allotriophagy]

£300 might be a realistic absolute top price. Still, better than nothing!

I will find a camera and shove it up on eBay when I get home.

I just sold the same laptop but with a gig of RAM on eBay and it went for $705 US and another MR member recently sold the same as mine and got $750US. Those prices are on eBay though and on here I would not expect to get more than $550 - $600 US. You can make the calculation to your currency :)

With the brits you just multiply dollars by two. Its been around that much as long as I can remember. Canadians and austrialians you just multiply by .8 , it may be a little more for them now, the dollar keeps sucking ass.

You multiply dollars by 0.5 to get pounds

Its a long shot but would you trade a Windows Mobile Device Click (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=286606) for it.

Or maybe My imac g5 for your powerbook + cash?
The imac is 2.1ghz 20" 1.5gb ram

That IS a long shot.

The iMac trade is tempting but I really need to sell stuff to raise some money and get some space. I've taken lots of pictures of the TiBook and will be putting it on eBay at the weekend.

Turns out it has one dead pixel. :(

Sorry, you are correct, I got it backwards

[eyemacg5]

did you put it on ebay?

[Allotriophagy]

Yes (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=140097955531).

[Allotriophagy]

It has now been sold for £400.
