FS: Macbook 13" black (needs work)

Sign in to disble this ad
I have a Macbook 13" black laptop up for grabs. It's a 2ghz intel duo core, 1 GB ram (upgradeable to 2), 80 GB hd I believe.
Original discs, and power adapter.
it's in great shape, no giant dings or scratches. "normal" wear scratches only.


The bad:

it needs a new keyboard/trackpad. (it's a one piece "cover" that has, the top of the laptop, trackpad, button, power switch, and keyboard all together)

The laptop fires right up, and works just fine. BUT you can not left click. this makes things a bit tricky.
Even when you plug in an external mouse, the left click function will not work. I'm guessing that the click button under the trackpad is stuck. or completely bunk.


Apple will fix it for around $150-200.
You can get a new or used one on ebay or the likes for $50 or so. (I've seen a video of it being replaced. Not too difficult, just a bunch of screws)

ALSO, the battery is bunk. These go for $25-65 on ebay depending on the brand/quality.


Lets say $350 shipped to US. (approx. $100, and an hour of your time and you'll have a nice laptop)

Pics up soon.

Two notes to add.

1. I have the original box and such as well.

2. The trackpad and button are working 100% today. ;-). Who knows what tomorrow will bring though. So at the moment, this laptop is 100% good to go. Maybe it just needs to be taken apart and cleaned out?

It's only been 5 1/2 hours! I thought that was a decent response time. ;-). I was asleep at 4:45am when the pm came in. ;-)

I wish I had extra cash! (Don't we all?)

I've been using an identical MB for about six years now. With 2GB RAM and an updated OS, it's still going strong!

There are many tutorials online for replacing the keyboard plate, for anyone interested.

Yes Although I've never experienced "extra" cash. Mines ALWAYS spoken for.
