1. I'm not trying to sell here, only trying to get fair advice.
2. I'd like to know the price if I were to sell it as of today, but I'd also like to know a rough deterioration rate, so I'll have an estimate of what it'll be next year if I end up keeping it for that long.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Exterior physical condition: Like new. Mothers could not take care of their baby more. You will not see a single scratch on the surface, top or bottom, of this thing, nor a single dent, even if you tried.
Interior physical condition: Like new. Palm guard and keyboard looks exactly like the way it did day 1. I had a Moshi keyboard guard to prevent greasy and faded keys (it happens, I've seen it), and I only ever type with my palms up. The screen is, of course, scratch-free.

Specs (custom parts are italicized, otherwise it's factory)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Year: 2012 (Specifically mid/October-2012)
Model: Classic Macbook Pro (NON-retina)
Processor: 2.6 GHz i7
RAM: 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Screen: 15-inch (1680 x 1050)
Storage: Crucial M4 256GB SSD
To summarize, it's an upper-end classic MBP from October-2012 with a high-res display (Apple-option, not done by me) and upgraded SSD storage. Physical condition, both exterior and interior, are more or less brand new. No faded aluminum, dents, keys, or scratches on any visible surface. No parts (other than the upgraded ones) have been replaced.
