I'm going to sell my iBook in a few months to a member of my family, but I have no idea what it's worth. I bought it about a year ago. Basic specs are:

12"
512MB RAM
30GB HD
1.2 G4 processor
Airport Extreme
Combo drive
Original packaging, documents, etc.

I don't know what other info is necessary. I was thinking about $500-600? But, like I said, I have no idea and it will probably be sold to a family member who's looking to buy an inexpensive laptop for his 13 year old daughter. I thought the iBook would be perfect for her.

Thanks for any pricing help!

have you considered selling it on here though? That is about what I am looking for in a laptop for my wife but I just can't find a deal breaker

I've told him that he'd get first crack at it when I decide to sell it, so I'm trying to figure a price. If he doesn't buy it, I'll certainly list it here, but I doubt I'll have many takers for a reasonable price. How much would you spend on my laptop?

I think you're right with $500-600. $600 might be a little high though, that's what people are paying for some 1.33Ghz 12" iBooks now a days. I would ask $575, that sounds about perfect.

Without a superdrive and with wwd (or whatever is around the corner ) I will give you $10. (lol j/k just trying to fit in here ha ha) Really it depends on how nice and well kept it is. I am realy anal when it comes to my computers. I will pay whats fair for something that has been well kept. Just please keep me in mind I would certainly be interested in talking to you if that deal falls through.

well, $500 then. But no more. It's good with 512 MB RAM, but the 30 GB HDD really cuts your brakes...:D
