Apple and a variety of retail stores will allow you to trade-in your MacBook offering you store credit or a gift card. Unfortunately, this is only fraction of what you'd get if you sold your MacBook yourself. On Swappa, you can get the most money for your MacBook by directly to buyers. This allows you to receive cash for your MacBook — not store credit — and use the money however you like.
