I've been looking to get one of these for my girlfriend before I fly back to London. I made a bid and sent payment on another one here but it didn't go through.

So PM me or post whatever you have.. I'd prefer 1Ghz and up. I'll be in NY city this whole week and then in Canada till the 21st.

I have no issues with meeting up if your around here or I'll pay shipping, obviously. I can do Paypal!

Thanks for looking

I've already got one for the girlfriend, but my mum loves the size too. So PM me what your expecting. I might just get yours instead of a MacBook which was the original plan, if the price is tempting.

I have an 867mhz model not in the greatest condition, but nothing horrible that I would be willing to part with for a good price, send me a pm if you are interested.

Yeah, please post a range of the price your looking to spend. I have a 1.5Ghz 12-inch Powerbook with superdrive, bluetooth, airport extreme, 80gb HD, 512 ram, no damages and hardly used. I have the original box and plastics and wires/adapters. It was bought January of 06 with applecare. So it still has 2 years warranty from apple still. I too am curious to know what your ballpark range is.

The top of the range Powerbook's - the 1.5's are going on eBay for about $700-800 which I personally dont think is worth it mostly because you can get a refurb Macbook from Apple for $799.

I was looking at something around 1Ghz - 1.33 - depending on how good shape it is in, how big the drive etc, I was looking to pay around $450-$500, maybe $600 for a 1.5 in good shape.

i just sold a 1.33 on ebay for $700 and bought a 1.5 from apple refurb for $1100. It is indeed worth it. You may have to opt for a 867, which is a great computer, but still a little out of your range.
