Has anyone got a working Macbook pro 13" around 2015 collecting dust? I want to have a play at converting one to Ubuntu/Linux, say $50-200?

Do you have the charger? is the battery still working, no screen damage? Bonus points if you have original box! If so yes will buy but live in Whangnaui so will have to be sent
