Several resellers offer older models such as your MacBook Pro 13-in (2012) at slightly higher

than street or local CL ad prices. Given the reputable ones have checked them over and

may have offered limited 14-day or other consideration, as warranty.


I've one such as yours, with a few upgrades over basic form; RAM now 16GB, storage

blade-type 240GB SSD drive; small but quick. ~ (Mine will need a battery. $129)


While looking around, saw OWC had one left in stock just like yours; with a limited

warranty (2 weeks) in their used section; same specs. For $629./used to have more.

All searches online near same specs, returned a variety of numbers; from $150 to $500.

Better results would require re-wording search parameters; maybe other spec details.

If you are careful you could sell via craiglist; and meet possible buyers. Mask up!


Or just use the older Mac awhile, and before selling it see how to ready mac for resale.

Sorry, but we don't know how much one would pay for your computer. Check what they are selling for on eBay.
