How to Sell Your Mac for the Most Money Possible

Ready to sell your MacBook, iMac, or other Mac? There are various you can do this, but the first thing you’ll want to do is find out how much your Mac is worth so you can get a fair price. It will take a bit of research but should only take a few minutes.

Start by writing down your Mac’s specs to help ensure you will be comparing apples to apples (get it?). Once you know your computer’s generation and its details, check to see if Apple is still selling that Mac. If so, find out what a new Mac with similar specs would cost. Hopefully, the difference is hearty enough to make someone want a used vs. new computer.

Once you’ve passed that hurdle, research online retailers who sell pre-owned and refurbished Macs and get an idea of what a similar one would cost. NOTE: Are there many competitors trying to sell the same machine? What are they charging?

 What is the Mac’s Condition?

How would you describe the condition of your Mac? Excellent * Very Good * Good * Poor

That includes the outer case as well as its functionality. Are there many scratches and dings? Are there any dead pixels on the monitor? Are there any keys that stick? If it is a Mac laptop, is the spine sturdy during opening and closing? Be honest, or you may have to refund your buyer’s money if they were misled.

Once you determine a price, you are ready to clean up your machine and find places to post it without numerous competitors.
