Right, now that I have my air, I have no need for my macbook Pro. Its in excellent condition, Very few marks or scratches, the only thing thats faded is the latch that opens it. It still works, but the shiney finish has rubbed off, and is now a dull silver instead.

The specs are:

2.16 Core2Duo
2GB RAM
120GB HDD
OSX Leopard

Its about 3 years old, everything is working perfectly on it, its just not needed anymore!

Now im looking for £300, but the battery is completely dead, so you will need to buy a new one from the apple store. I believe they are £99, but dont quote me on that. It runs fine off the power, everything works perfectly, but the battery just doesnt hold a charge.

If your interested, want any pics, or have any questions let me know. I would rather send it to a good home then flog it on ebay or something :).

Do you think im asking for too little for it? Its one of the older generation ones, but it doesnt have a battery with it so its kind of £400 rather then £300, thats why im asking for a little amount.

Well this place value it to £830 !! , I can't say how accurate it is though

I recently looked at used MBP'S on ebay , ab I don't recall seeing much under £500 tbh

I am sure the others on here will help you work out what it's worth !

Blimey Chaslam, thats incredibly cheap, even without the battery, as others have said on here. But if you really insist then I'd be interested in putting in a bid at that price :D It would be in good company with the rest of my Mac flock, or is that herd, gaggle, school, pack?

I'd be a bit careful there , As any mac breeder knows , you can't keep two MBP's together when there is a macbook in the house, as they'll fight for alpha status ;)

It does feel like a good price, but then this is the version with the ATI graphics, yeah?

I'm sure it'll make a really nice laptop for somebody. Good to hear it's going strong after 3 years.

Ok, im going to increase the price to £375. its not a huge price increase, but after looking around I think I will be able to get this for it. If anyone on here wants to take it I will do £350 plus delivery, because I know you guys will give it a good home :). if anyone would like some pics please ask and I will take :).

Blimey Chas - it's been a long time!

If you can wait till I get paid around the end of March I'd be very intested in this! I've always been after one.
