Hi Everyone,

I just bought a new 15" Macbook Pro Retina, so I'm looking to sell my 2012 13" Macbook Air. It has 8 GB ram, 1.8 GHz processor, 128 GB SSD. It does have a "Service Battery" alert and my battery app shows that it's current capacity is 66% (4438 mAh).

I'm planning to sell it on ebay, as I've used that many times before and have a great seller reputation (~80 feedback, 100%).

I have a couple of questions for those that have done this before:

1. Is it worth paying the $129 to have Apple replace the battery or should I just sell it as is (making it clear to the buyer what is going on).

2. Do you have any general tips for me?

3. Any advice on what price I could expect to get? From checking similar ebay listings, I'm thinking probably $600 with free shipping included.

Thanks for your help!
