What do you guys think the resale price of a mid-2012 rMBP base model is? I want to sell mine if the new version coming out in September (hopefully) is a significant jump in features.
I can find them refurbished by online retailers for around $1000-1100. Yours most likely has an old battery and isn't accompanied by a warranty. I don't know whether the charger is in good condition or not. I would say probably $700-800 unless you find a buyer who is lacking in sensibility. Go down from there if it has screen problems or heavy cosmetic damage. If they may actually need to spend money on battery service, a new charger, or anything else.
You can of course list it higher, but I don't think it's a good value for anyone above that. I'm assuming this is a 15". Also note that like the 2011s they do have some known graphics problems. They just aren't anywhere near as bad as the 2011s. The repair program lasts through the end of this year. After that it's on whoever buys it if the motherboard dies. Depot repair is around $350, so it's not exactly trivial.
Yah, I actually got the graphics replaced (on 15") and while they did that replaced pretty much the entire insides besides the hard drive. So it is basically 6 months old.
