Used Chromebooks in Mobile typically sell for $81 to $335. Chromebooks are bought cheap for school and browsing, and the one fact that decides the sale is the auto-update expiry date, because after it the machine stops receiving security updates.
Selling a Chromebook in Mobile
Mobile is a deep-water port on the bay with the oldest carnival celebration in the country, a shipbuilding and aerospace manufacturing presence, and a great deal of preserved antebellum and Victorian architecture. Hurricanes are a real annual consideration.
Shipbuilding and aerospace employment runs on contract cycles, and the old housing stock brings genuinely old furniture onto the market. Hurricane seasons clear out porch and garden furniture on a regular basis.
The older districts have narrow streets and limited parking, so confirm where a vehicle can stop. Carnival season closes large parts of the city, so check the calendar.
Ask whether the item has been through a hurricane and where it was stored. Storm damage to motors and upholstery can look fine for months before it fails.
Mobile, in Alabama, has around 185,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Huntsville, Montgomery and Birmingham are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Mobile
USPS, UPS and FedEx all cover the country. USPS Ground Advantage is normally cheapest for anything under a few pounds in weight; above that the gap narrows quickly.

Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
