iMac Resale Price? (UK)

[InfernoUk]

hey guys

posted this in the buying/selling help section but havent had any luck with a reply,

Im selling my 27" i5 iMac (mid 2011, base spec)

I have an offer of £950 cash but wanted to know if you guys think its worth any more?

It has wireless keyboard, magic mouse and track pad.

Thanks for any help with this, i only ask here as its urgent and may go today!

You could haggle over the BT KB and the Trackpad....Might get an extra £50.00 but you might have to wait for a sale...I'd say that was a pretty good price.

yea i figured it was a good price, with my discounts i paid £1000 for it 18 months ago so ive lost £50 for 18 months ownership, its cash so i avoid ebay fees the people getting £1100 are having to pay as well...

that site seems broken, says like £600 but none actually sell for less than 900.

I think 950 seems to be a good bet

It's always been a little under, but never £300! Disregard it in this case.

I would take that.

Actually just as a reflex I would say £975! Try for £1000, meet in the middle.

I sold my iMac mid 2011 27" yesterday for £900.
I sold it early before the market became flooded with iMacs.
The fun I had was factory resetting my mac back to SL as it wouldn't reinstall, no sandy bridge drives on my disc, 10.6.3, I needed 10.6.6, which meant I had to get the new buyer to buy ML and then format my ML and reinstall it under his account whiles he was waiting.

Imho....

adjusting for depreciation/exchange rate you can get around 850-900 pounds.
Can go higher based in the cosmetic estate of your computer, remaining warranties and kind of use/care the computer has got.

But if you have a upfront 950 pounds offer, my advice is go for it!
