Used MacBook Air 13-inch (M3, 2024) price
A used 13-inch MacBook Air M3 with 16GB typically asks about $850 on US eBay in November 2026. Cheaper 8GB listings exist, and they are the ones to skip. The practical upgrade over the M2 is support for two displays with the lid closed. When the M4 is within about $150, buy the M4.
