I Am Looking into selling these, although I'm not 100% sure how much to take for them, I'd like some reasonable prices as I Put some money into both of these.

MBP:
Early 2008
15.4 Antiglare Display
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4ghz
6gb Ram (MAXED)
120gb SSD (OCZ Vertex Plus SATA 2) (UPGRADED from stock)
10.7.2

MB:
Mid 2007
13.3 Glossy Display
Intel Core 2 Duo 2ghz
3gb Ram (MAXED)
250gb 7200rpm HDD (UPGRADED from stock)
10.7.2

MBP has some dents and bends by the dvi port, and the magsafe port, along with a dent on the front left corner, and the macbook is in perfect condition other than the aged look on the apple logo. Both have new batteries and the new L shaped magsafe. I Hated the T Shaped one.

Thanks for the input, I Paid $500 + $200 in upgrades on the MBP, and $250 + $150 on upgrades on the White MacBook.

Just sold mine for $800

My MBP was the same exact model, but had a new logic board, a 750 GB Scorpio Black, and 6 GB RAM also. My case was in better shape - only light scratching on the cover plus one "fingertip" impression it picked up in my computer bag. Had the original box, packaging, and all accessories to go with it.

I think the buyer got a great computer for the price - recent upgrades and repairs alone cost me around $500 -- and the local listings (Dallas) on Craigslist seem to support this.
 
With those pictures here are my guess:

MBP: 500 MAX!
MB: 300-350MAX!


Why? Its not near as bad in person, when i bought it i thought it would look bad, but i got it and you dont even notice it.

Thats Awesome! Mine also Has a brand new logic board, its like 3 months old. I Should've mentioned it.
 
Try the BestBuy trade in program. I haven't tried it yet, but the online estimator seems generous for early Core2 machines.
