FS: Pristine 12" PowerBook (UK)

[davidjearly]

Hi,

Ok, so no one is really interested in a trade. In that case, I am looking to sell this PowerBook. It has been a great machine and I've had no problems with it at all. I just need something a little bit bigger.

It comes as new, boxed with all accessories and disks. Battery condition is excellent along with rest of the machine. It comes with all original software and licenses.

Can provide excellent references on request. Pics are below!

The specs are: 1.33Ghz G4, 768MB Ram, 60GB HDD, Combo drive.

Please don't reply saying 'how much do you want' etc etc... Make me some offers!

David

Afraid not. I really need another portable Mac and I am looking to get something with a larger screen with the cash I make from this.

Possibly, a 13.3" MacBook.

Thanks anyway.

How does your 12" compare to this (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330184092721&_trksid=p3907.m32&_trkparms=tab%3DWatching)?

This is one of the reasons I hesitated on the trade... the value seems to have dropped significantly.

That's an iBook, not a PowerBook ... he has the listing title wrong but the description is correct.

As monty said, it is an iBook, and a significantly older one at that. In addition, it gives no indication of the cosmetic condition and it doesn't come with any box/restore discs/accessories.

The MS Office license is likely invalid if there is no disk and he shouldn't be selling it without the disk.

The PowerBook on the other hand is much newer and in perfect cosmetic condition with all accessories. Also, it is a much newer chipset with better graphics etc...

The only thing the iBook has going for it is the RAM and the HDD, which I admit is pretty good.

Ok, so due to the poor response I've had I think I'll set a price based on what I've read and seen online.

How about £450 shipped to UK?

Check your PM Dave :)

Is there any chance of a trade deal still?
