... For the G4 TiBook in my sig, that has some minor paint loss near the trackpad where your wrists would rest, and a crack in the case near the left side by the PCMCIA slot, and some minor dents? Functionality wise, it's in near-perfect condition. Just want to get some oppinions. Thanks.

Between $400-$500, *based on the market value for these machines* Knock off of that price whatever cosmetic flaws. I'd have to see it to actually list a real price though.

$280. It is a bit of a very old machine. And the clock speed is what makes me offer that little. (I'm not saying I'm buying, tho :) ).

I would not purchase it with all that damage, and the low clock speed. It many technologies behind If you wanted to sell it I would have sold it before the intel switch.

Sell on ebay at really low starting price. You will probably get more than expected there. Some people go buckwild when bidding on ebay sometimes.

Would it help if I mentioned that everything has been replaced? HDD, optical drive, power adapter.. Pretty much everything except the logic board. This happened around December of last year.

I would say no, it wouldn't help.
$300 would be the best I would think you could do for it, considering the age, speeds, and cosmetic conditions you describe.
