Gold MacBook 12" (2015) - 8GB RAM / 256GB SSD - Screen Fault / Repair Project

IMPORTANT: Display Fault & Condition (Read Carefully) This is a great Gold MacBook that works perfectly internally, but has a major display issue: • Screen Fault: The screen has lines running through the display, reportedly caused by the lid being "over-extended." The display assembly needs professional repair or replacement. • Workaround: The MacBook works perfectly and runs flawlessly when connected to an external monitor (via a USB-C adapter). • Repair Cost: Please note that screen replacement for this model typically costs around $600 NZD. This item is priced to reflect this cost.
