Hi,
I'm going to be selling my Mac mini so that I can afford a new iMac over the summer. The specs are:

PowerPC G4 1.42GHz
1GB RAM
Radeon 9200
Combo Drive
80GB HD
BenQ 17-inch LCD
Microsoft Wireless Keyboard/Mouse Set
2 Years of Best Buy Warranty Left
Am I forgetting anything?

How much do you think I could get for it?

If you get $600 that is fair, but you might get less. They sell the new G4 Mini at Costco for $700 with 3 year warranty and apple wireless mouse and keyboard with no monitor and only 512 ram but with DL Superdrive.


Do you have the boxes for everything?

With boxes

Mini $450-500
Extra $40-50
Monitor $100


Try craiglist.

I've got the boxes and thanks for the estimate.

Check ebay...

Item 8808764917
Sold for US $487.00

List it on your local craiglist since it is free for $650 for the whole package see what happens. Before I brought the Mini from Costco I brought one on craiglist in Feb with the following...

1.42/combo/512/80 /BT/ Airport
ATI remote control
USB apple keyboard
Mircosoft wireless Mouse
Wireless Router
Brought in Jan 2006
$500

Dell LCD 17" + $100

Notice after i brought it was Refurb and wanted a superdirve...and the Costco had the deal.

Sold the Router for $40, Mini with keyboard and mouse for $500, kept the lcd and Remote. Told thenew owner it was Refurb, but they didnt care going to install it in a car.


You should be able to get atleast $600... since you have the boxes. People would rather have AppleCare but Bestbuy warrany good i think if it breaks they will give you an Intel machine.
