WTT: Loaded 12" 1ghz PB for G5

[intendedaccel]

I'm selling my couple month old 12" powerbook and 20" cinema display because I am getting a new laptop from work and will no longer require the use of this. Here's the specs:

12" aluminum powerbook
Combo Drive
1 Ghz G4 processor
768mb DDR ram
80gb Harddrive
Built-in bluetooth
Built-in Airport Extreme
Includes Panther up-2-date disks, along with original restore CD's, manuals, box etc
Extended Applecare Protection until 10/16/2006 on both laptop and display
Perfect condition
Zero dead pixels
Apple DVI to ADC adaptor
Oh and I will throw in the everquest DVD I got for my .mac renewal since I don't use it.

20" widescreen LCD Apple cinema display
Zero flaws and NO dead pixels

Both are in flawless condition.

Powerbook Serial #: UV342660Q76
Display Serial #: N53382QKNAF

If you were to go to apple today and buy this combo it would cost $3,870 + shipping and taxes! Even if you are a college student and you get the educational discount it would still cost you $3,368 + shipping and taxes!

I am asking $3,050 shipped anywhere in the US shipped via FedEx insured. If you are in Minnesota I can meet with you to save shipping costs which will drop the price about 50 bucks.

I need to sell this system ASAP!

My ebay ID is intendedacceleration with all positive feedback, and I am a verified paypal member. Thanks!

Actually I think I found the post you are talking about, and I think it's the same guy that is in this post! :D

[Chad C]

Yeah it was me, thanks for giving the tip Eric I appreciate it:D

[intendedaccel]

Forgot to mention that it has a combo drive. Added to original post.

[ColdZero]

I believe this configuration only goes for $2472.00, unless I missed something, brand new in the apple store tho.

You forgot to add 99 for the DVI to ADC adaptor.

[intendedaccel]

I will pay cash + my powerbook for a nicely equipped G5 dual 2 or 1.8 ghz machine. Don't be afraid to shoot me an offer.

I will also concider newer (still in warranty) high end dual G4 machines.

Don't be afraid of insulting me, I'm a big boy, I can take it. :D Keep in mind though that I'm not going to give this thing away either.

[CamH]

I sent you an email offer in reply to my thread. :)

[intendedaccel]

I've decided to sell this along with my flawless (no dead pixels) 20" cinema display which is also covered under applecare for a package price of $3,100 SHIPPED!! This won't last long at this price!

[intendedaccel]

Just checked my applecare paperwork and both the Laptop and Display are covered until 10/16/2006

For those that care
Powerbook Serial #: UV342660Q76

This needs to go ASAP!

[intendedaccel]

Updated original post with all info plus added a picture.

[intendedaccel]

Ok I need this thing gone. Here's what I'm going to do to spice it up. I will also throw the following into this deal. All are almost new and in perfect shape.

Logitech Elite Corded keyboard
Logitech MX500 Corded mouse
Apple iSight firewire camera

This is an outright steal! I need this stuff gone soon! Thanks!

[intendedaccel]

Boxed everything up last night so it's all ready to ship. Everything could EASILY pass as new! Buy me please! :D

lol - kind of funny to read through this thread... if you don't mind my askin, why do you have to get rid of it so fast and get your hands on a desktop machine?

Actually if you read through it again, I started out wanting to trade for a desktop. Later I changed my mind and just decided to sell it because my work bought me a new laptop and I no longer need this one at all. Right now it is just sitting in it's box collecting dust! :D

It's actually a Sony Vaio PCG-GRT270P.

2.2ghz P4M, 16.1" screen, etc etc

I like it the more I use it but windows is sure a pain over Panther. If I didn't need the money I would keep my apple too but that's just too much money sitting there that I can use for bills or whatever.

[intendedaccel]

Price now $3,000 shipped for everything!

[intendedaccel]

Price drop: $2,900 shipped :eek:

[intendedaccel]

$1900 shipped for the powerbook
$1000 shipped for the display
$75 shipped for the apple DVI to ADC adaptor
$30 shipped for the mouse
$20 shipped for keyboard

Yes my asking price is in US dollars. Go to the apple store and spec out a laptop exactly like this one and you will see that this is over 500 dollars off of new!

Come on people, computers are just like a car, you can buy a stripped down version of a model or a loaded version. Which is going to be more expensive? :rolleyes:

[intendedaccel]

iSight is sold, everything else still availible

[intendedaccel]

Price drop again!

$1800 shipped for the powerboook!
$900 shipped for the display!

[intendedaccel]

Monitor is now sold as well. Thank you!

Here's what's left:

$1800 shipped for the powerboook!
$75 shipped for the apple DVI to ADC adaptor
$30 shipped for the mouse
$20 shipped for keyboard

The keyboard and mouse will work with a PC just fine too btw, and are very nice!

[intendedaccel]

Mouse and keyboard are both sold as well.

[intendedaccel]

Price drop again

notebook $1750
adaptor $50

:D

buy me buy me buy me!

[mxpiazza]

if you're still looking to trade for a g5, i know someone who will give you a single proc. 1.8 with halo, wireless keyboard, and wireless mouse for the laptop alone. let me know.

[intendedaccel]

I really need this gone!

Ack I didn't want to go this low but I need this gone fast!

1600 SHIPPED FOR POWERBOOK!
$40 SHIPPED FOR ADAPTOR!

first email to intendedacceleration@mac.com will get it first come first served. I won't be home till later tonight. Thanks!

[OKComputer]

if you go to the Apple store and click on save, you can get a single 1.8 brand new for 1899 and just sell your PB. Saves you the hassle of the trade. just thought id give you the heads up about that deal

[intendedaccel]

Everything has sold. Thanks everyone!
