I need to see what my iMac is worth. I am going to sell it but didn't know how to price it.
What it is:

White 24" iMac
2.33 Core 2 Duo - BTO
500gb Hard Drive - BTO
2gb RAM - Upgraded
BT keyboard/mouse - BTO
Nvidia 256mb 7600 GT - BTO
AppleCare until 9/19/09

Non-smoking home and I have the original box to ship it in.

Thanks for your help.

Brian

I would check eBay and see what similar ones have sold for very recently but I probably agree with around $1500 ish. You have to take into account that you can build a new 24" for around $2k.

Good thing is the new ones come with ATI video cards so someone that wants/needs the NVIDIA (maybe they will do bootcamp and play PeeCee games?) will pay the premium.

Which panel does it have? If it has an S-IPS, you might be able to use that as a selling point.

I was thinking $1700 to $1800 because of the specs.
If you spec out a new iMac with the same ram, HD, without applecare it comes out to a little over $2000, and that doesn't included tax.

Just what I was thinking for a price.

Am I to high?

No. Especially since with the 7600GT it outperforms the new iMac. I'd say it's worth right around $1600-1800.
