Does anyone know how much can I get for a Clamshell iBook, looks brand new, specs are:
288MB RAM
40 GB HD
AirPort Card,
OS X 10.3 Panther
It is an original 300MHz blueberry iBook. Hinges, handle,all plastics around screen have just been replaced, battery lasts 4+ hours (brand new also) everything works,includes office x, vpc 6+win xp,some other programs. works like a charm.
Comments are 'preciated
personally put it on ebay. i would recon £150+
About how much is that in USD?
I just found a replacement battery for my ibook (same model as yours) for $150 (USD). With your larger hard drive, the excellent condition, and the topped out OS, I would suggest you start bidding at $100 USD and try to include any original lit/packaging. Someone may offer more, but the sad reality is that you are competing with newer iBooks for mid 60's.
It really boils down to how much you have recently invested in it and its value to yourself - two questions no one here can answer.
What are they going for on eBay right now?
On eBay, there are a few clamshells, mostly stock parts, but there is one (or more, didnt see all results) with 160MB Ram, 6GB HD, going for 229 bucks. they are the same processor speed (300mhz, and have os x)
I thought mine would go for at least 300, cause of the hd size, the condition (truly excellent- looks brand new). A lot of sentimental value for me, as I have invested a lot into it.
It will definately go for $200 plus on Ebay... most clamshells with OS X do, considering people tend to like them for their collector value or whatever.
Thanks very much!

Thanks everyone for your comments. I will definitely think about putting it up for grabs on eBay, or maybe a trade for something else (a powerbook or a stock 366-or-466 ibook maybe?).
Oh yeah, did I mention the hard drive has a 16MB Cache!!! Its also 5400 RPM, And dead silent.
