My Mac Mini was not being used much, latterly it just had a reassuring role as a disaster recovery machine for my Mac Studio, but was not actually needed anymore so I thought I'd trade it.
How did I do?
Pretty well I think. Kept almost 47% of value, and cost £11.21 per month.
If someone said you could have a decent dev spec Mac Mini (16GB, 512, M1) for under £12 a month you'd take it wouldn't you?
| Original Cost | £915.84 |
| CeX Voucher | £490 |
| Difference | £425.84 |
| Percentage of original value | 46.5% |
| Months owned | 38 |
| Monthly Cost (Before Trade in) | £24.10 |
| Monthly Cost (After Trade in) | £11.21 |
TL:DR — After just over three years my Mac Mini (M1, 2020) was still worth nearly 47% of its original cost as a trade-in to CeX. Pretty decent return for a computer thats been on 24/7 and is out of AppleCare coverage.
