What’s a fair price for a six-month-old laptop?
10510U
i7 @ 1.80GHz processor
16GB RAM
512 GB SSD

I'm looking to buy it back from my company

Got any more specs on the laptop?
It could be worth somewhere between $750 and $1,500, depending on which specific model we're talking about. Check the retail price for a brand new one, then knock off at least 20%—maybe even more if you haven't personally used it before.

It says it’s brand new, priced at $1,700. I suppose it really comes down to the specifics—condition, paperwork, warranty status... the less hassle, the better for you. And if $2833 you can snag it, that's an easy $450 back in your pocket.

Haven't seen that specific model mentioned in the thread yet.

It's a decent enough laptop, but the real question is what it's worth to you. Like, would you be perfectly fine walking away with something that has similar specs but feels way cheaper than the $1667?
What Morgan Murphy5 said pretty much sums it up.

It’s in great shape—I've been using it for four months and it's basically brand new, so $2.75 would be a fair price. Anything more than that? Not happening.

I just used 8,500 as an example. It really comes down to what you feel comfortable with. Even if it’s 9,500, that’s not a bad deal either—keeping an extra 2,000 in your pocket is actually quite significant. Plus, having a clean receipt is a nice little bonus; maybe it'll help you fetch a better resale price in two years. As for how many actual working hours it'll survive, there aren't any guarantees there. You only get the standard manufacturer's warranty based on time. Whether or not you can negotiate a lower price given that it’s already clocked 700 hours in operation is a different story entirely.
Personally, I think I'd be perfectly happy with the 8,500 option. I have my own laptop and could certainly use that 3,000 difference in my pocket.
