Condition:

Older MacBook Pro showing typical wear for its age: scratches, rubbed areas, and small dings on the lid, palmrest, and bottom. No significant chassis bend was seen, but the machine clearly shows use; please see all photos for details. The patched Sequoia install boots and basic features like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and primary USB ports worked when tested. Because this is older hardware running a non-standard OS configuration, it is sold strictly as-is with no returns.

While the device shows significant cosmetic wear, it has been tested and is fully operational. Please refer to the product photos to assess the exact condition before bidding.

Accessories:

MacBook Pro 13” laptop and compatible MagSafe AC charger/power adapter are included. No extra accessories or packaging are included unless visible in the photos.
