Selling my Mac Mini (Late 2009) - How much should I sell it for?

I have a late 2009, standard Mac Mini with no upgrades. Mac OS X 10.8 is installed and a Acer 27 inch screen, required cables, disks, 1.5 TB External HD, keyboard, mouse, and original boxes for all the items are included. I've done a lot fo research on Craigslist and Ebay, finding that the average price range for a setup like this would go for $350 to $600. I'm settled to sell my Mac at this price range. Though I would like to here what everyone thinks. Let me know if this price range is resonable and what would you pay for this setup. Thanks!

Mac mini, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)

I would likely pay about $500 to$600 for the whole package.

Just note that if the buyer subsequently problems, he can only install the iOS that came with the Mini (on DVD) since the update are locked to your Apple ID

What if I reinstalled the OS so the buyer could setup their account on the machine? Would they be required to have my Apple ID?

Based on the Apple license, you must wipe your hard drive and

install the OS that the Mac was originally purchased with and

provide those disks to the purchaser.

All OSX full version upgrades are not transferable and are only licensed

to the pruchaser of the upgrade.
