1108448 2010-06-09 21:04:00 Take a look on Trademe what others got. Not what they are asking, but expired auctions - what they actually got. That will give you an idea - remembering to look at the most recent sales, not ages ago. pctek (84)
1108449 2010-06-09 21:25:00 if it was cheap I would buy it, depending if anything major is wrong with it

The only thing wrong is the battery holds charge but doesn't work. This was identified as a software fault (the upgrade to fix it is for tiger only :annoyed:) when I sell it I will wipe it then reinstall tiger first (including the battery update) then upgrade to Snow. The battery works fine after that (I've done that before just last time I forgot to install Tiger first :waughh:). How much would you pay for it?

1108450 2010-06-09 21:27:00 Are you sure its a macbook, and not a ibook. A few more specs please.

Just looked it is a macbook. Almost 4 years old?

iBooks are PPC and can't run Snow. Also it says MacBook on the base of the screen (that might be a hint...).

Forgot the CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo 1.83ghz any other specs you would want?

I got Mac2Sell.com to value it they said it was worth $750 NZ not including software. Does that sound about right?

Checked just then the value has decreased to $630.

1108452 2010-06-10 01:28:00 Ok if it is only the battery that is dead, then its out of my price range, try trademe you will get way more than I would be able to offer nedkelly (9059)
1108453 2010-06-10 01:46:00 Is PressF1 an online auction site?

THe battery is not dead. Even if it was wouldn't it move it closer to your price range?

Could a Mod at least move the thread to the Chat please.Asking about the value of a computer can be considered a technical question, so it is OK to post it here.

However, I am sure he is not trying to find a buyer in this thread ... isn't that right icow?
