2. Your Laptop Is Slowing Down

If you've noticed that your MacBook Air's performance is degrading, it may be time to consider replacing it. Whether the processor is wearing down, your laptop is experiencing software conflicts or memory issues, or your hard drive is maxed out, having a slow computer is never ideal. 

Crashes, lags and freezes make it difficult to perform regular tasks on your laptop. And your computer may be unable to run newer programs and apps if it's on the older side. Inconvenient glitches and slowdowns are a major reason to consider selling your MacBook Air.

3. You Can Get Money Toward a New Computer

One of the best reasons to sell your old laptop is that you can get money for a newer one. Apple laptops are constantly evolving, so there's almost always an opportunity to upgrade to a better and faster one. 

If your MacBook Air isn't the latest generation anymore, consider trading it in to get some cash toward your new purchase. Even if you no longer need your current device, someone else may be able to give it a new life.

Common Questions About Selling a MacBook Air

You may have other questions about selling your MacBook Air on Mac Me an Offer. Below are the answers to some frequently asked questions by our customers.

1. How Much Does a MacBook Air Sell For?

When it comes to pricing used MacBook Airs, there isn't one hard-and-fast value that applies to every laptop. How much you can sell your MacBook Air for can vary by the quality, condition and model of the computer. When you fill out our form to receive a quote, we'll ask you a series of questions about your laptop. We then use this information to generate a fair offer based on your product's value.

2. Is It Safe to Sell My Old MacBook Air Online?

Selling your used MacBook Air online with Mac Me an Offer is safe. Having served the Apple community since 1995 and earning the highest accreditation ratings with the Better Business Bureau, you can trust that our company is completely safe and legitimate. To ensure total privacy and security, we wipe out every computer hard drive and install a clean operating system.

3. Should I Erase My MacBook Air Before Selling?

Yes, erasing your MacBook Air is an important step in preparing the laptop for a new owner. Your computer — and all of your electronic devices, for that matter — can contain all kinds of personal information. 

Before selling your MacBook Air, you should make sure all of this information is fully deleted as an additional safety precaution. Later, we'll cover some important steps for wiping and restoring your MacBook Air to its original state.

4. Do You Purchase Upgraded or Damaged Products?

Two major factors that can influence your offer are upgrades and defects. We provide higher offers for certain standard upgrades, which are specified in the quote form. Other upgrades may require you to provide additional information for manual review. After we review this information, we'll email you an offer based on our team's evaluation of your laptop's upgrades.

As for damaged products, we ask that you note any cosmetic or operational defects in the appropriate field before submitting your quote form. Our team will review these defects carefully, then provide a fair offer based on repair expenses.

5. How Will I Get Paid?

Mac Me an Offer provides two different payment options — Zelle or check. This way, you can get credit for a newer device if you wish to replace your old one.

What to Do Before Selling Your MacBook Air

If you'd like to sell a used MacBook Air with Mac Me an Offer, there are a few things you'll need to do to prepare your laptop for a new owner. 

While some of these steps are optional, they're helpful measures to ensure your Mac is presentable, functional and secure. Follow the steps below before selling your MacBook Air.

1. Back up Your Data

Backing up all of your data is an important first step. This ensures you can still access any important files, apps and accounts after the old device is no longer in your possession. Make sure all of your data is available on a thumb drive or through iCloud. Apple makes it simple to back up your data with the cloud, so you might consider taking advantage of this feature. If you already have your new MacBook, transfer your data to it.

2. Log out of All Services

Next, you'll want to make sure you're logged out of all apps and services on your Mac. If you sell your laptop to a reputable company like Mac Me an Offer, you won't need to worry about anyone accessing these accounts. But it's still a basic safety measure when selling or giving away electronic devices. 

Go through your web browsers thoroughly to ensure you're logged out of all services. Make sure you delete web cookies, as well.

3. Unpair Devices You Wish to Keep

If your MacBook Air is synced with any Bluetooth devices like a mouse, keyboard or touchpad, remember to disconnect any devices you plan to keep. View the Bluetooth device's instructions if you have trouble disconnecting it.

4. Delete Personal Information

After all of your data is backed up, feel free to delete all of the information on your computer's hard drive. This should include any sensitive or personal information — like bank records or work projects — that you wouldn’t want falling into the wrong hands. 

While the chances of someone accessing and using this data are incredibly low, this is a standard safety precaution when selling a computer, phone or any other electronic device. It'll give you added peace of mind on top of the fact that we erase all your data off your MacBook Air once you sell it.

5. Clean Your Device

Next, you’ll want to give your MacBook Air a good cleaning — especially if it’s been a while. Remove any stickers and decals and make sure your computer has all of its peripherals. 

Use computer-safe cleaning supplies to get in between the keys, cleaning out any dust or gunk that may have accumulated over time. Get any fingerprints and spots off the screen, too. Cleaning your laptop makes it more presentable and attractive during the selling process. You can also more easily notice any scratches or dents to report.

6. Wipe Hard Drive and Reinstall a Clean Operating System

Finally, consider wiping your hard drive and reinstalling the entire operating system. While this step is optional, it allows you to be fully comprehensive in preparing your laptop for resale. This final precaution adds another protective layer to your information while fully resetting the device. If you aren't sure how to do this, don't worry — we'll handle it for you.
