This one is priced for someone who knows what they are looking at: a capable MacBook Pro that needs a screen repair before it earns daily-driver status.
The honest bit first. The LCD panel is cracked, with discolouration visible around the edges on a white background and faint markings on the display. That is a structural screen fault and the main reason the price is where it is. Everything else on the machine is functional.
Screen: Cracked LCD panel. Discolouration is visible around the edges on a white background and faint markings are present. The display needs professional replacement before regular use.
Casing: The trackpad is a little stiff and some keyboard keys feel stiffer than ideal. Light scratches and markings are visible on the casing, consistent with everyday use, but the overall structure is intact.
Battery: Cycle count is 136, which is low for the age of this machine and indicates good remaining capacity.
Functions: System functions have been tested and confirmed working. The fault is limited to the LCD panel.
Warranty: Sold as-is with the known fault described above. Our standard warranty does not cover this known issue.
In the box: Generic charger included. Original box not included.

There is only one, and it might be in someone else's cart right now. A cart does not hold it, checking out does. The first person to check out claims it, and we then hold it just for them for 2 hours to pay. Settle within that window and it is yours. Let it lapse and it goes back up for whoever is next in line. Pay before 13:00 on a weekday (not Friday) and it is packed and dispatched the same day.
Door to door, anywhere in South Africa. Every device is local stock, sent via The Courier Guy with a tracking number the moment it leaves us. No imports, no customs queue, no waiting weeks for a parcel from overseas.
The price you see is the price you pay. Because it ships from right here, there are no surprise VAT bills or import duties landing after checkout, the kind that catch people out when they buy refurbished from abroad. What you pay is the whole story.
