I mean this in the most respectful way possible, but your price is entirely too high.

Nah, I was going to sell it part by part, but I decided not to piece it. It works well, just the screen shattered. So i figured this Powerbook would be equal to a PowerMac G4.... although I don't have a 100Gb laptop hard drive it in or the maxxed out ram, but for someone looking to have a machine always on in the home or just to have a "desktop" that doesn't take up much room, this is someone's chance.


I understand that you may think it's high, but I think it's fair enough for the parts you get. I could probably make more by selling pieces, however I'm strictly reluctant to do so. There have been some machines that sell for $350-400 with the LCD. I've seen them sell replacement lcd's for $30-125 on ebay. So my asking price isn't too bad, plus of course i've taken into consideration the number of people that would want to counter-offer me. Aside from that, I'm looking for an iPod mini that someone isn't probably using anymore and laying around... then this mac can be sold for VERRRRYYYY cheap. So until I find someone willing to trade an iPod with me... i'll wait on until then.

Alrighty, I understand your position. People will pay crazy prices on eBay, and when I come here, I get sticker shock sometimes. Good luck!

Price dropped to $250 shipped with the airport card. If noone wants it, I will either part the machine or sell it as a whole on ebay tomorrow night.
