Sold! - 15.4" SR MacBook Pro, 2 GB, 120 GB HD, Leopard *Update

[queshy]

Just a feeler - how much do you think mine is worth? It's in mint condition, with no defects at all (yellow screen, burnt pixels, etc.). It was purchased in around August/September of 2007. I'm also in Canada if that means anything. Thanks!


Edit - the best offer I have now is $1500. :S Seeing as new ones are coming shortly, is it good offer? I wish I could get more...

Edit #2 - Sold - at just the right time (few days before the updates) for $1675.

i received offers on craigslist for $1600, is that a good deal for me? I was thinking a bit higher...

I listed mine on craiglist in anticipation of the macbook air and I got 3 local buyers willing to pay $1800 (usd though) for that same computer, but with 4GB ram (only a $100 upgrade). I ended up bailing because I didn't like the Mba.

I think $1600 is about the highest you will get on here. Thats what I found from trying to sell my MBP.

Is it a 2.2 Ghz or 2.4.

If it is a 2.4 and has apple care you could get 2000.
just my opinion

It is the 2.2, the 2.4s come with 160HD.

You learn something everyday

Thanks!

Oops, sorry for not giving the details.

It's a matte screen, baseline 2.2 SR MBP.

I answered back the guy who offered 1600 and told him I had other offers (I actually received several!!) and he is offering $1700 Canadian. God deal?

Yes, I would take that. Thats a good deal for your computer. Only $300 less then retail is always excellent if you're the seller.

Cool, thanks!

The guy left me his number and wants to meet somewhere...I find that sort of sketchy - I've never dealt on that site before. I asked him if I can just drop it off at his house.

Thanks everyone for the advice!

Meet somewhere you're comfortable at - a bank, post office, Starbucks, etc. Don't meet at his house - thats about the worst thing you can do if you think a deal is feeling sketchy. Always a public place.

Thanks for the advice! HE squeezed me down to $1675. I accepted it. Public place it is!

I would not take it. When I was selling mine, in Canada, I was asking $2000 (though mine came with lots of extras). I had some offers of around $1800 which I declined. The only reason I havent sold it was because I removed it, because Instead of upgrading, which I wanted to do (17"), I am getting a new car

How could you be getting 2 K for it? It's only $1999 at BB now.

This was over 1 month ago, plus mine has about $200 in extras (windows XP, original games, mouse etc).
So you do the math. $2200 + tax + $200 + tax extras= $2650+.
So theyd be saving, after taxes, almost $700 on a like new MBP.

Oh ok i see. Mine has no extras - just the mbp itself.

[Romeo604]

hey is ur mbp still available?

[queshy]

Yes it is.

The other buyer backed out, now I have another offer for $1500 :eek:
I don't think that's a very good deal at all...
