Sell Broken Unibody MacBook?

[Jesssi]

So I have an old MacBook (Oct. 2009, white Unibody, 2.26 ghz) that is fried. The hard drive, charger, and rest of the computer are still intact, but it won't turn on. Apple quoted me at $1000 to get it fixed. Instead, I'm getting a refurbed, but is it worth it to sell this one?

Do you have pictures?

You're saying that Apple said the motherboard is dead?

Honestly, I don't think it's worth selling. If the logicboard doesn't work it's just a nice looking paperweight.

What? Yes it's a Mac...and the motherboard is no more than $600. How is that different from any other board with the same CPU?
