Brian,

I guess you don’t get what I am saying - your laptop is used, this is new. Unless you are going to provide something to support asking for 90% of new you should be asking for at least 25% below NIB. Even under best conditions - because the computer is not new, the components in it have taken loads and abuse (if even extremely light).

Technology depreciates VERY quickly. If I asked for 90% of asking price after a few years my Galaxy S4 phone would be worth $460. It’s not. It’s worth about $150.

An appropriate price for this computer might be $175-$200 OBO.
