damn this sounds awesome, i just bought a blackbook a little over a month ago and its in mint condition, its the latest 2.4ghz c2d 250gb HD and i upgraded to 4GB of ram it being only over a month old it obviously still qualifies for applecare, unfortunately im saving for a house right now and dont have alot of money in my budget to give you much cash + macbook. PM me and tell me how much you were looking to get in the trade?

Is it HD? I have a blackbook 2.2 with a 200gb 7200 rpm hd and a 4gb ram upgrade with Apple Care.

Is it HD. Sorry, I do not understand what you mean by this. Sometimes my technology terms are a bit lacking :(

There are two 17" screens, the normal one and the HD one. The HD one is an extra 100 or so and has a screen of 1900*1200. Since it's optional you would probably know if you purchased it.


I've got an offer for ya'.

15"
2.6C2D
256Vram
2Gb Ram
Edit: Glossy & 120GB HD.
Edit #2: Oh and 2 batteries :) Both hold long charges, 95% health or so.

It does have one blemish, it's not anything big though. It's on the right side of the bottom case, it's not something you can see while working. Under warranty till August, but the credit card I paid with gives me double the warranty for free. So warranty till August 09, all you'd have to do is email me.

Hey,

Sorry, I've been thinking about it throughout the day and decided that I'd like to stick with my MBP. Good luck!!

Would you be willing to sell it by itself and then buy a Blackbook?

Just pm me your offer and I will take all with consideration. You will not regret this laptop it is in perfect shape!

Hey Guys

I own a 17" MATTE Macbook Pro that I bought brand new with my pell grant money and some savings I had. It is a 2.4 GHz model, I will PM you the serial number on request. I also purchased the 3 year Apple Care warranty on it at the time, it is good until December 2010.

This computer is flawless. There are no scratches, blemishes, dead pixles etc to be found anywhere. I have kept it like brand new. And it is amazingly powerful, it can handle anything I throw at it sitting still (I do a lot of TV show ripping on it).


Long story short, I did not consider the size of this thing when I ordred it. It has become cumbersome lugging it from class to class along with my books etc.

I am thinking to trade to a black Macbook. It has to be at least a Core 2 Duo and must be under, or eligible, for Apple Care. We can work out the rest of the difference in cash or trade.

I also might entertain a 15" Macbook Pro, tempt me.

So if you have anything that fits this bill, PM me and lets discuss it. We can change phone numbers to iron out any details etc. I can supply pictures on request.
I just bought a Macbook black 2 DAYS ago, so u know the configs are like the same as MBP only difference is this one has a smaller screen and a bigger HD, and the MPB has a bigger screen.
so, what do u think?

I have been on the phone, TM'd, and emailed confirmation to TRADE my BlackBook 2.4 Penryn via UPS, but I'm concerned there are others being worked on the same MBP 2.4 17" Matte! PM me and MacRumors Administration. :mad:

Still haven't heard from this OP, so I'm assuming that his MBP 2.4 17" Matte is no longer on the For Trade Block??? :mad:

Already contacted another MR Member and he was also getting ready to send his MBP this morning! Awaiting to hear from MR Administration. :(

What? No man, I had discussions with 7 people to be exact about a possible trade. the first person who commited and shipped. I was going to mark this as being sold and asked to lock it up. Alot of offes but no commitments until today, then people freak. You have my phone number even.

Damn

So, what you're saying is that the first person to send their MB/MBP and confirm it, would receive your MBP? Suppose all seven of us sent our MB/MBP's to you and weren't able to get in touch with you; don't you think that all seven of those MB/MBP's would show up on your doorstep and then you would have to send them all back or refuse receipt? I'm not about to send my MB, hoping that I'm the first to make contact with you that my MB has a tracking number and it's on its way to you, with no guarantee that I'm going to receive your MBP in return! Suppose I was the 2nd person to contact you that my MB w/tracking number was on it's way; how would I get that back after it's on the plane? Your words, "Let's Do This!" There was never anything about it's a "RACE!" :mad:

Dude, Don't threaten me! Post my name if you want, but don't think for one minute that I'm not following the rules of the Marketplace:

(Interest. If you are interested in the sale/trade, you may ask questions or make an offer by posting or by contacting the seller privately through Private Message or e-mail (if enabled). If you have trouble contacting them or you don't hear back after more than a day, you can post in the thread to ask if they got your message...Plan to respond promptly, after no more than a day, to offers or after a deal is made. Make sure your Private Message mailbox isn't full. Answer questions posed in the thread by interested parties.)

You've threatened me via text msg: "Edit out my name and address or else I am going to post yours. I don't like my personal information being posted." Your exact words!

Now, you've TM'd me calling me a "coward" so I'm truly hoping that this sort of harassment will catch the eye of MR Administration. "EVERYONE BEWARE OF THIS OP-SELLER!"

Macpierre, if you want to trade with me we can. Let's use an escrow service to ensure we will both receive what is expected.

And to the other paranoid poster, I said I would deal with whoever sealed a deal with me, not after it shipped. You knew I was hesitant to make a trade with you as I had to think about it for several days. I happened to wake up at 4:00 am and saw your email and went back to sleep. Once you told me you shipped I was going to mark it as sold and tell everyone else its gone (which I did to a couple) already.

I had nothing finalized until today

im still confused. you said you have nothing finalized until today, but then on the top you said we can finish this deal between me and you? i would like to deal but not if its gone. is your other deal done or not?. im lost.... please clarify, thank you
