I was too lazy to walk all the way down to his office and pull the specs directly, so I popped open the fantastic free app, MacTracker. For Father’s Day I got Steve a new iMac, so I needed to figure out what his old one was worth. At least I know the value of the equipment, but this process takes 3-4 hours.īut that’s not the Tiny Tip. If I’m selling to a stranger, that’s a fixed number, if it’s to a friend who maybe could use a little bit of help with the price, I’ll lower it a bit.

I average the selling price in my beloved Excel to determine a price. Then I throw out the lowest one if it’s got something clearly wrong with it or it has something fundamentally different spec-wise from the one I’m selling. I throw out the super high ones, which are usually those sold by a company. I keep detailed notes in my spreadsheet on how they might vary from the one I’m trying to sell. Then I create a spreadsheet and start recording the last 10-12 that have sold recently. I search for the same device on eBay while setting the filter to sold items only. Traditionally I write down all of the specs of a machine, and then go over to eBay. The bad news is it’s tedious to figure out what your devices are worth. The good news is that Apple devices hold their value really well. When you want the new hotness coming out of Apple, one of the ways to justify your expensive purchase is to resell your existing Apple products. In the words of Billy Bob Thornton in Bad Santa, “They can’t all be winners.” So many people have told me they love the strategy of creating a Delete Me folder! Don’t set your expectations that high for every Tiny Tip, though. It will be hard to top the first Tiny Tip.
