Seems to be a decent deal for an old iBook.

I don't think that's all that good a deal.

if you look at recently ended auctions on eBay, the going rate for a 1.33GHz iBook G4 is about $175-$300.
Sell or send me your vintage Mac things if you don't want them.

That doesn't seem like a great price at all. If I were to put my ibook on the market (14" with 1.2ghz, 768mb, 60gb 4200rpm, airport, dvd-cdrw, and 2 batteries) I would make the starting price $200. Over $300 doesn't seem fair for such an old machine.
