Do people ebay their old iMacs after refreshes like the iPhone, iPad etc

[bobright]

I know the way apple geeks are im that way myself with iPhone/iPad I'm always wanting to update to the recent refreshed model. It got me thinking, is there lots of folks out there that are this way with their iMacs and ebay their old ones when the next gen comes out? Does shipping make it not worth it?

I'll be purchasing my first Mac once they are released but if a retina iMac drops a year down the line that's what I'd want to do, hopefully it isn't until 2-3 years

Probably not as much as iPhone and iPad people do but yes I saw a few more iMacs on Craigslist after the announcement of the latest refresh.

I wouldn't wait for the retina, it could be 1-2 more years.
