It is worth trying to sell an old Macbook 2010

[MobileContent]

I bought myself the latest Macbook Air and had an old Macbook which I upgraded last year to a 512GB HDD sitting idle at my home.

 

Also the Macbook is in perfect condition, I had some shops that have shown an interest to offer me 3000 Baht for it which I found very cheap as the Macbook is in perfect condition.

 

Is it worth the hassle to drive down to Phantip or Fortune?

Those models are well made and easily upgraded ... I'd sell it privately or give it as a gift to a needy but worthy student . . .

Is it 13, 15 or 17"  Macbook or Macbook Pro

This one example on e-bay, they try to sell it for around 13,000 Bath, but prices range from 2,000 - 30,000 depending on model, upgrades etc..

MacBook Pro 15.4" 2010, 2.66 GHz i7, 8GB RAM, 750 GB Hard Drive

If a shop offered 6000 baht for it you can guarantee that you will get a lot more for it privately.

 

Which one is it? Metal or white plastic? Here in the UK depending on condition and specs between £150 and £350.

Keep it as a backup.

Don't sell it, I upgraded my 2010 MacBook Pro with an SSD and more memory, still use it as a desktop at home, bought a MacBook Air for travelling...........You can use the old one at home like an iTV............they last a lifetime.

agree, I have a white one that for photos, spreadsheets, word-processing , and some video editing has more than enough power. (especially after I packed an SSD as well as a 1 TB HDD into it.)
Moreover, travels well and unlikely that someone were interested to take it away in the lounge.

I'm not a fan of Mac but must say they retain their value FAR beyond that of any Windows-based computer.
