Ok I am now selling this 12" powerbook I just rebuilt, this machine was bought from a member on here that thought the motherboard had gone out all it took was a new stick of ram and the machine took off. Here is what I have done to this computer. I replaced with new parts the bottom and screen top of the computer do to heavy scratches the previous owner had done. Bought a new power adapter off ebay along with a funtional lcd trim that now locks when you close the computer and a new apple brand battery. I even replaced the track pad/ palm rest area with one from ifixit.com. This computer looks as good as new. Here are the specs of the machine.

G4 867
60 gig hard drive
384 MB of ram
superdrive
airport extreme
bluetooth
all the other factory specs of course.

I can get some pictures of it for anyone who wants to see it please pm me your email address and I will send them to you.

I am wanting to get 600 for this computer, I know it might be a tad high but the way this machine looks I think it worth it.

Thanks for looking

Pictures are now available, please pm me with you email and I will send them to you. Or if someone could please inform me how to post pictures on this site I will post them here.

Let me tell you this thing looks good as new. Only thing right now is it wont sleep when you close the lid but I have the part coming to fix that. Of course I havent had this since it was new but I am sure the screen isnt as bright as it was when it was new.

You really think you're going to get $600 for a personally built/repaired Powerbook without any warranty with those low of specs?

Reality check: you couldn't get that price if the machine you're selling was brand new in box with those specs. Used ones with those specs that are still under warranty go for $450, maybe $500 if you're lucky.

I think you'd be LUCKY to get $450 shipped for it, and that'd be pushing it, given that it's a personally rebuilt machine from spare parts off eBay with low specs and out of warranty.

really the only thing rebuilt is the outer case. There was nothing wrong with the machine besides the guy who had it before me put cheap ram that didnt work in it. And considering your right about most on here with these specs are going for around 450 well I wanted to start out at 600 and see if any offers were made. I will take offers from people, 450 is probably what I will get for this machine, man you are not good at selling things if you always price your product with no playing room to work on price. Yeah here is a used computer that works great how many 867 powerbooks look new out there. So please quit trying to go around and giving people advise on how to sell there stuff. I am not asking twice as much as I should for this machine, there might be someone out there that used to have one of these that would like another one and be willing to pay a little more to get one that looks like it just came from Apple.

If you are interested in please let me know other wise please dont post. These type of comments always lead to arguments that take away from the orginal post that I was trying to sell something.

I am willing to take offers on this powerbook so anyone interested please shoot over a offer. I dont need to sell it but I would like to.

For the record the only spare part on this machine that is used is the front bezel that has the hook in it which keeps the display closed, all the other parts are bran new came in its original plastic protection. And nothing has been replaced inside the machine that makes it work besides the hard drive.

New price I really want to sell this. Would anyone be interested in paying 400 for it? Or I might be interested in trades let me know what you got.

Thanks
Jerry

Another member has sold an 867Mhz PB for $325 shipped a few weeks ago and it was in good condition with all the materials and original parts. I sold mine for 300 flat two months ago.
