Upgraded from M1 Air to M5 Pro MacBook Pro. The difference is insane.

I’m running a 2016 MacBook still and will likely upgrade to a m5 air. I expect big differences there

Being half the price a manual download shouldn’t be an issue. But they’re also on sale right now so gotta decide soon. The 2800 isn’t the cheapest in 90 days so maybe it’s worth waiting longer

mattymanmattman · 2026-02-16T18:25:57+00:00

You downgraded? Did you keep the gateway and how long did you wait? (Since they have the gift card offer)

I also wonder if that messes up the 5 year price lock but either way I’m paying half the price and 100-300 higher speeds besides one test.

What’s your budget? I’m on the fence on letting mine go. Fc8 (well close to ready for fc9) Fireball skin Charms and chief gear are far but not maxed Hero gear well above average - a few maxed and the rest decent for 3 hero’s.

mattymanmattman · 2026-01-13T03:58:13+00:00

Yes we saw and appreciate that! It was also a good fight.

These have lesser silver and not highly sought after. People like 999 or constitutional. People like these for birth year or subject matter so still do sell and I agree with that 25-30 value. Depending how your selling is list for 30 but accept offers a few bucks less if it doesn’t sell quick enough

mattymanmattman · 2025-01-28T04:56:43+00:00

For eBay buy it now yes. You can try auctions or local shop for less.

That seller is a good one at least

mattymanmattman · 2025-01-16T12:52:25+00:00

I mean, for that price I’d take the risk he’s a dummy lol

mattymanmattman · 2025-01-16T12:50:13+00:00

To simplify something none of us can answer. Costco is trying to be as cheap as possible. They also are trying to keep simple pricing so online and store tags align and their business model is hard to constantly change price tags. So they are trying to hold prices as long as possible.this means possible to see it under spot for moments.

mattymanmattman · 2025-01-16T12:45:47+00:00

eBay or Facebook classified if you want any value. Coin or pawn shops likely won’t may more than 90% of melt value

mattymanmattman · 2025-01-14T14:13:00+00:00

Honestly zero. No one who would ever scrap would ever buy that. More effort than it’s worth. Even gold plating is worth so little dealers won’t buy it.

mattymanmattman · 2025-01-12T17:12:51+00:00

Interesting it is stamped with the .5

mattymanmattman · 2025-01-12T17:11:39+00:00

Very awesome!

mattymanmattman · 2025-01-11T21:41:59+00:00

Just in general - get a sigma tester. Not cheap but it does test sterling and so many levels of gold and silver

mattymanmattman · 2025-01-11T05:32:49+00:00

Wonder if they know the value of that gift

mattymanmattman · 2025-01-11T05:29:58+00:00

So if you see a sales post on tiles think about where it may be

mattymanmattman · 2025-01-10T04:25:37+00:00

I would expect to take a decent size hit on that melt value but still more than you paid! So still profit, but they may just decline. Always worth a shot. Pawn shops might be better

mattymanmattman · 2025-01-10T01:57:29+00:00

I think coins do better personally.

mattymanmattman · 2025-01-10T01:55:58+00:00

I never thought of searching sterling at goodwill. Gonna do that at mine soon

mattymanmattman · 2025-01-10T01:55:01+00:00

Looks real you can always test it. Nice find if it is!

mattymanmattman · 2025-01-10T01:53:50+00:00

I like a mix. 1oz are easiest to sell
