Another good suggestion, thank you! The letters have already begun flaking off in spots and in one corner I was easily able to pick off more using my finger nail. Might take a while but I think I can get them off with minimal damage as long as a i take my time and am careful!

Good buy. I just sold my 2011 27" to replace with a new one. I generally keep them for 4-5 years and sell them, usually get 60-75% of the cost back in many cases.
They don't depreciate too much, unlike our cars... I just sold my 2013 MacBook Pro 15" for $1800 and then scooped up a brand new pro 15" for $2400... battery wasn't holding a charge on the '13, otherwise it was still rocking out like a champ...

Local business who wants to remain anonymous... But if you go on Craigslist, that's what determined the pricing for them to purchase my laptop... I also snagged my '16 MBP for $2400 on CL, hehehe... Still sealed and MSRP is $2799, plus it's upgraded something or other I can't remember... And Slate Gray, which is a nice departure from almost a decade of that silver aluminum finish...

But if you have an older laptop you need to sell, CL isn't that bad of a place...

Can never have enough. People NEED to know what I'm driving.

Thank you! Yeah, I'm close to Chan Gabriel.

Mr Tonka....shoei is also on a different part of CL too, and my understanding is the price he got for the MBP was inclusive of 'favours'. So unless you are likewise inclined, wouldn't use his pricing as a reasonable expectation of what you can get

I see you're in Utah.... why not just marry another one and skip the expense of divorce?
