I have an iMac 800mhz G4 15" super drive, 60GB 256MB of ram. I am thinking about selling it, and I was wondering what you think a Reasonable price to ask might be?

What do you think I can get out of it?

start high and haggle, if you are selling it sell it as soon as possible because it will only get older. I'd say high is $1200 low is $600 in american funds, but definetly get another opinion because o don't know a lot about this.

Search eBay for completed items. These still go for quite a bit of money, usually in the $700-$900 range.

have you posted it in the marketplace forum? just ask the people there what they think its worth, one of them may buy it and I would rather sell it to someone from macnn than ebay.

thank you for the advise appreciate it. I have looked at ebay, but I was thinking of selling it to a fellow marine that I know. Ebay has so many different prices 400- 1400 I think was the high, and I wanted to give them a reasonable price. By the way I have been acting really retarded latley, and I didn't even know about the marketplace. Sorry about that just never noticed.

Do search on ebay for "iMac 800MHz" and then check the box beside "completed listings' - on the left side of the page, then click 'search'. It'll show you all recent completed auctions of that description. It appears that a 15" iMac with Superdrive is worth at least $715 - and as much as $850.

You want to know how much similar iMacs sold for. Viewing active auctions is not a good way to determine value. Since most bidding happens in the last few minutes of the auction.
