Hello all:
I have a 13" MacBook pro for sale, asking $800. It is in pretty much perfect condition, just a couple scratches on the very bottom.
Specs:
Comes with a power adapter, Snow Leopard, (is more than capable of running Lion).
4 GB ddr3 ram, pentium 2.53 duel core processor, 250 GB hd.
It has a trackpad, and is about 2 years old, maybe a bit more.
If you are interested:
Email is tyler@tysdomain.com, which also doubles for msn.
Skype is st8amnd127, and aim is st8amnd2005.
Thanks,
Two questions: this doesn't necessarily mean I'm going to buy it. Just something I'm wondering:
what methods of payment can you accept?
would you be willing to accept payments in installments, provided the terms of the deal are reasonable. I.E. More than $10 per month, ETC.
@Post 1 and @anyone still young enough to contain a skull full of sawdust and not know better:
Do *NOT* do payments. The banks can and you can't, and here's why: you can't lien on colateral. If you don't know what a lien is, or what colateral is, go look that up. Do not do payments, ever. A written contract from somebody is as good as only two things: Their word {which you really don't know}, and your ability to enforce it {which you don't have except for small claims court in most cases}.
It's one of those rules you should live by, just like don't loan money to family. I was given both sets of instruction by my own father, spurned them both, and deserved what I got at 18.
Thanks, leo. I've already had this question asked to me more than a dozen times. I can not accept payments, because as Leo said, there's nothing that would prevent anyone from just paying me $20/m for the next 10 years and stopping after the first 2 months.
Here's a thought for anyone that wants to do payments though. When I bought my mac, it was $1800 (I still wonder if I was high), and I just pulled a lone from the bank. Yeah, it added interest, but it also built up my credit and allowed me to put the internet/cable/phone in my name, which is also helping quite a lot on the credit deal. Might be something you could consider since it's a small amount and will help later. That and you get a shiny cool new Mac!
