Selling notebook?

I have a 2.5 year old 15" Aluminium G4 Powerbook and am thinking of upgrading to the new Macbook Pro. Are there any places where I can sell/trade-in my used notebook and how much canI expect to fetch for it?

yes there are places where you can trade it in (i.e. Some Apple retailers and Trade-In shops in Windsor House, Mongkok Comp, 298, Wanchai comp - to name a few).

BUT!!!! They'll get for dirt cheap. Better off selling it yourself than trading it in. But, if you can't wait, then trading in is your only option then.

Good luck!

Honestly, I don't think you're going to get very much for a 2.5 year old 15inch albook... but if you do, let me know - I've got one too

yup not much indeed. i've seen a few in some local forums selling for half or less than half from it's original purchase price. you didn't mention though if it has apple care of the warranty has run out already?

Yup you're better off selling it on ebay or somewhere like that.

those shops will probably only pay you a couple of thousand dollars then sell it for around $4000.
