Check before you pay
- Ask the seller to sign out of iCloud / Microsoft account and turn off Find My (or BIOS/firmware passwords) in front of you.
- Check the battery cycle count and health; a worn battery is a common hidden cost.
- Confirm the exact chip, RAM and storage in the system information screen, not just the listing title.
- Test every key, the trackpad, ports, webcam, speakers and Wi-Fi. Look for dead pixels and hinge wobble.
- Prefer a fresh reset in front of you so you know it is not tied to a company device-management profile.

How much is a used laptop in Eugene?

How do I avoid scams when buying a used laptop locally?
Inspect and test it in person before paying, check that it is signed out of the seller's account, and avoid deposits, gift cards or anyone who wants to move the chat off the marketplace.
Do I pay sales tax on a used laptop in Eugene?
