If this information is somewhere else, let me know. The stickies didn't seem relevant.
I'm looking at trading an old laptop + some extras for a Mac Book, but I don't really know much about Macs. Using the serial number, I was able to identify it as this model:
MacBook "Core 2 Duo" 2.4 13" (Mid-2010) Specs (Mid-2010, MC516LL/A, MacBook7,1, A1342, 2395*) @ EveryMac.com
The main thing I want to know is, how much is it worth (ballpark)? Also, are there any pitfalls with that model I should know about?
Thanks!

Apple sells these for $999 new, so given the overall condition and if there is an Apple Care pack (extended warranty) I'd just guess at something like $6-700. There is a bit of the original warranty left (how much depends on when it was bought) as Apple started selling them in mid May 2010. All Macs have a one-year standard warranty.
There isn't much to say about them, unless dropped or otherwise mishandled, it is a sturdy laptop. Prone to smudges and scratches unless it is babied or one buys a Speck case for it. Here's a review of one: http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Apple-MacBook-2010-05-Notebook.32430.0.html
It is the last year model and the MacBook will (hopefully!) get updated in a few weeks time. -
It's the white macbook? WIth 320m? If so yeah I say if $700 on Craigslist if it's in good condition. If you can find the right buyer. But $600 is a good price that I think should sell. If not ebay for sure.

Apples hold resale value very well. If condition is perfect, you can sell between $850-950. I just sold my 13" MBPro 2011 for $1050.

yah I'm saying 850$ a buddy of mine just sold his 2008 MB (the first Aluminum one). for 700$ about a month ago...
-
Since Ebay does not collect taxes I think you can sell it for 900.
But they will take around 8 percent.
So 800 is what your looking at. -
Yuck. Those white one's arent so easy to sell.
Their screens are much lower quality than those of the unibody MBPs, and they just aren't as sexy as the unibody ones. I would say ~$600, maybe a TINY bit more with apple care remaining -
Hmm. Topic says MB Pro but link is regular MacBook. You're right, the regulars are a hard sell.
Value of MBP
