To maximise the price for the MacBook you’re selling, we have a few value-boosting tips.
Make sure you specify the model you have, including the name, generation, processor, screen size and storage.
A MacBook sold with its original accessories like Apple USB-C power adapter and MagSafe cable is worth significantly more than without those. If your MacBook doesn’t come with a working charging cable, then the price quoted might be adjusted upon receipt of your computer.
Sell your MacBook as soon as you no longer need it. Just like mobile phones, MacBooks lose value over time and the longer you wait to trade in your MacBook, the less money you will get for it.
To keep your data private, you should ensure it’s gone before the Mac leaves your hands. First of all, you’ll need to sign out from your iCloud and disable Find My. Resetting your Macbook to factory settings works just like on an iPhone, go to System Settings > General > Transfer or Reset and click Erase All Content and Settings.
No, unless you reset it first. Without a password, you won’t be able to remove your iCloud which means your MacBook will be locked and you won’t be able to proceed with the trade-in as our recyclers don’t accept locked devices.
