Apple Computer Mouses Resale Value

A used Apple computer mouse is typically worth £10 to £58 (approximately $13 to $77), against £8 to £45 for computer mouses generally. Apple hardware holds value better than any other consumer electronics brand, and the whole sale turns on two things: the model identifier and whether the device is cleanly removed from its previous owner’s account.

Apple computer mouses: price by condition

Condition	Typical
New with Tags	£58 (~$77)
Like New	£49 (~$66)
Good	£38 (~$50)
Fair	£26 (~$35)
For Parts	£14 (~$19)

Seller-declared grades, sterling with an approximate US dollar equivalent at £1 ≈ $1.33 (July 2026). What each grade means.

What holds its value across Apple

Battery health above 85% on anything with a battery, which buyers ask for by number
The original box, cable and adapter, which matter more here than on other brands
Higher storage tiers, which command a clear premium second-hand
Devices still inside AppleCare, which transfers with the device

What pulls Apple resale value down

Activation Lock still enabled, which makes the device close to worthless because it cannot be reset
Third-party screen or battery repairs, which trigger a service warning in Settings that buyers see
Any finance agreement outstanding, which blocks a clean transfer
Bent chassis on laptops and tablets, usually a sign of a swollen battery

Identifying and dating yours

The model identifier is in Settings > General > About, or on the underside of a laptop — it is what buyers search, not the marketing name
Serial number checks against Apple’s coverage page confirm warranty status and age
Battery health is readable in Settings and should be photographed

What lifts any computer mouse, whatever the label

Mice are cheap new, so only gaming and ergonomic models hold meaningful value, and the switches are what wear.

Recognised gaming and ergonomic brands
Click switches with no double-clicking
Intact grip coating with no peeling
Wireless models with good battery life

And what pulls one down

Double-clicking from worn switches
Peeling or sticky rubber grip coating
Worn PTFE feet
Generic office mice

Working out what yours is worth

Click each button repeatedly checking for double registers
Inspect the grip coating for peeling
Check the feet are intact

What to state in the listing

Brand, model, and wired or wireless
Sensor type and DPI if it is a gaming mouse
Whether the dongle, cable or charging lead is included
That it has been tested for double-clicking, plus feet and coating condition

Brand, model and connection: “Logitech MX Master 3, Wireless, with Dongle”. Gaming mice sell on sensor and weight, office mice on comfort and battery life. Say whether the dongle is included, because many wireless mice will not connect without their specific receiver.

Preparing and photographing it

Test for double-clicking by clicking slowly many times in a text editor or a click-test page.
Check the scroll wheel for skipping and the side buttons for response.
Clean the sensor window and the feet, and note whether the feet are worn through.

When it sells best, and handing it over

Steady year round with a lift in September and January. Premium office and gaming mice sell within days; basic mice are worth very little.

Very cheap to post. Include the dongle and any charging cable, and pack so the scroll wheel is not under pressure.

What buyers ask

Is a locked iPhone or iPad worth anything?

Very little. Activation Lock cannot be bypassed, so the device cannot be reset for a new owner. Remove the account before listing.

Does battery health affect resale value?

Substantially. Above 85% sells at the normal rate; below 80% buyers negotiate hard because a replacement is an immediate cost.

How much is an Apple computer mouse worth?

Roughly £10 to £58 depending on condition, against £8 to £45 for computer mouses generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.

What the fees would take elsewhere

At the mid-range £34 for an Apple computer mouse, against what the commission marketplaces would deduct:

Platform	Fee	You keep
Poshmark	−£7	£27
eBay	−£5	£29
Mercari	−£3	£31
Etsy	−£2	£32
WishThrift	−£0	£34

Seller-side rates verified 26 Jul 2026, percentages only — the per-order and processing charges those platforms add are excluded, so the real gap is wider.
