PowerBook G4 15" (UK Selling Help)

[HelixOmnimedia]

Hello,

I'm thinking of selling my Apple PowerBook G4 15".
I have tried to sell it privately but when you mention Apple people assume you're talking Granny Smiths and Coxs, and where I live Mac's are non-existent everyone uses Windows.

As I live in the UK, the only place i can think of where to sell a computer is on ebay, unless someone else can suggest a place.
I'm generally looking for a suggested price to sell it at, unless someone wants to make me an offer :).

I have never sold a computer before, but my PowerBook in in excellent condition and it would be a waste to leave it laying around.

Below I have attached an edited down version of what is available in the "About This Mac" System Profiler and lists all the key information that I think should be listed along with other information.

I've just put your computer through mac2sell.com to get an estimate for the price and it has returned a value of £650. See here (http://www.mac2sell.net/permalink/?id=9c5f56a1723baf20a6faca5ee9a66112).

You can sell it on here, although in my expereince you'll probably get a higher price on eBay. There is also gumtree (www.gumtree.com)
