I apologize if this is the wrong forum. I know I will need to post it in the marketplace but need some help before it do.

I have an iBook G4 that has died. I cannot get it to turn on. My ex decided to just get a new MacBook instead of trying to fix it. I am going to remove the hard drive because he needs his stuff from it.
After that I would like to sell it as is to someone who may want it for parts or who could fix it.
It has bluetooth, airport card. The case is in great shape. I am not sure what was wrong with the iBook and why it would not turn on anymore.
I have the original box and powercord.
What would be a good price to ask? (I am asking here because you have to post an asking price in the marketplace forum and I have no idea what to ask.)
Thank you for any guidance you can give me.

Good rule of thumb is to look on eBay at completed listings for whatever it is you want to sell, then drop your Marketplace price accordingly. If an 800MHz iBook G3 is going for $250 on eBay, make your price $200 or $220 or something like that. Good luck!
For all the trash I talk, I sure own a lot of Macs...
