iMac 27-inch Retina 5K (2019) locked questions
How much is a locked iMac 27-inch Retina 5K (2019) worth?
An iMac 27-inch Retina 5K (2019) in like-new shape currently prices at up to $360. Once the lock is cleared, the lock itself does not lower the price; condition, storage and battery do. Each iMac estimate draws on this month's resale data for that configuration, and your condition answers refine it before anything is shipped.
Which iMac 27-inch Retina 5K (2019) storage sizes can I sell?
All of them: 256GB SSD, 512GB SSD, 1TB Fusion Drive, 1TB SSD, 2TB Fusion Drive, 2TB SSD and 3TB Fusion Drive, across Core i5 6-core 3.0GHz, Core i5 6-core 3.1GHz, Core i5 6-core 3.7GHz and Core i9 8-core 3.6GHz. Higher storage raises the offer in every condition. The About screen on the iMac lists its exact name, year and identifier.
Does the iMac 27-inch Retina 5K (2019) have Activation Lock?
No, Macs of this generation predate Activation Lock, but a firmware password, Find My remote lock or MDM profile can still lock it. Signing the iMac out of its Apple Account drops it from Find My, and that is what lifts Activation Lock for the next user. Activation Lock is checked during pricing and again on the bench, so switching it off early keeps the iMac sale moving.
How do I get paid for my locked iMac 27-inch Retina 5K (2019)?
Choose PayPal, Zelle or Bank transfer (ACH) when you accept. After testing confirms the iMac 27-inch Retina 5K (2019) matches your answers, payment is sent within 2 business days after your device passes inspection. If anything differs you get a revised offer first and can decline it for a free return.
Do you buy carrier-locked devices?
Yes. Pick the carrier in the quote. Carrier-locked units must be paid off and free of blacklist reports, which we check by IMEI before sending a label. Activation Lock is tied to the Apple Account still signed in on the Apple device; signing out removes it and frees the device for its next owner.
