    the lower the better ( full disclosure: i'm in the market for a new 13" MBP... :eek:))

    haha.....jokes aside, I would test the water on craigslist first because there are no fees associated with selling.
    I would have to imagine atleast a 10-15% cut because some may argue that educational discount automatically puts them at 10% below apple's pricing..

    good luck!!

    hard to say, with lots of people waiting for an i3,5,7 refresh I would be guessing you could take a decent hit on it. 18 - 30%

    I sold one 2 weeks ago and had a hard time getting a bite at $775 CDN granted mine had a tiny scratch on the bottom
    amazon says roughly $900USD for used and I couldnt get that ... did sell it for 825CDN to a student
