I'll give you 1,000,000 for it. It's less than you want, but I don't expect anybody would be willing to go for 1.4 million. If you don't get any buyers at the higher price, I'm willing to wait. Good luck with your sale.

I may take 1,200,000 if you are willing to pay that much.

i got a new one about a month ago for 1.5 million. The difference between yours and mine is that mine has 1.6 ghz dual core, 120 gig solid state hard drive and 2 gigs of Ram. I think 1.2 is a bit much.

Well if you go on the Apple Website it is 1,450,000 and mine is basically brand new

The same model with 2 gigs of RAM as a refurb sold direct by Apple goes for 1,090,000 on the Apple store.

http://store.apple.com/kr/browse/home/specialdeals/mac/macbook_air/11?mco=MjEwNTcwMTk

Only difference is the 110,000 for the bump from 2 to 4 gigs of RAM and the missing time on the Apple Care (5 months or so) and whether the seller/buyer feels that's a fair trade off.

basically brand new is not brand new.

weren't you trying to sell this on craiglist for a while until a lot of people called you out on charging WAY too much? i think it's funny that you would think the people here would fall for this. if you have even turned it on then it qualifies as used, and you have to expect to take at LEAST a 25% price cut on what you paid for it. not to mention that buying from someone on craigslist instead of paying, what, 100,000W more to get it from apple directly, means you don't have original receipts or proof of purchase, the warranty is questionable, and you are basically taking everything as is. even an idiot should know to shell out that extra hundred clams for a guarantee of quality.

i'm sorry you paid so much for a computer and then decided you didn't want it, but please stop fishing for suckers to recover your costs. be responsible and live with the consequences of your mistakes.

Oh, my. It seems that I may have offered too much. I revise my offer to 800,000 won. If you change your mind, let me know.

Actually I thought your offer was quite fair. If the condition is basically new and it still has at least half a year on the Apple care and comes with all the pieces, I'd say 1 million would be a good price for a Macbook Air 11" upgraded to 4 gigs of RAM.

I posted the link to the refurb store because it's not fair to compare 'basically new' to 'bought at an Apple store new' in terms of prices. Virtually all the refurb computers sold by Apple are indistinguishable from 'untouched' computers but even Apple knows not to charge full price for them.

if this is indeed the same guy trying to sell it on craigslist for that much, its funny that he is still trying to sell it. He told my friend he sold it for 1.2 million. I doubt that he got that much for it haha its funny how people will try to make back almost everything they got when they paid for it.

I also agree as soon as you turn it on = used. i love how people try to word play as well, its used, just live with the term. il give u 750,000 for it, no wait 700,000! lol

If it is the same guy as on Craigslist, I actually offered 1.2 and he rejected it saying it was 1.3 FIRM, then offered it to me last week at 1.2 if I still wanted it.

Seeing all the 'offers' on here and people basically agreeing its grossly overpriced I decided not to buy...I don't think 1.2 is a bad price but with the price of the refurbs and the prices that other people have put their MacBook Pro's/Air's on here for, as well as Craigslist, I know I can get a better deal elsewhere, and from someone who is a lot more honest and not just trying to squeeze the last bit of Won out of people.

yeah i think what happened is this person bought it, decided he had made a mistake and is trying to recover a lot if not all of the money he spent on it. to be honest i tell people to NEVER get a macbook air, get the regular or the pro. they are able to withstand more.

but this guy has also done the same with a 2nd gen 8GB ipod touch. its an older version and he is still ASKING too much for it. and what you said confirmed it, he wrote my friend an email response saying that "thanks, and i sold it for 1.2 mil! ^_^" and yet here he is still asking for it to be sold.
