Man, just two days ago, I received in the mail, from my hometown of Dallas, TX, a rare, “dilapidated,” for-parts, thirteen-inch, 2012 MacBook Pro laptop that I paid FIVE dollars plus shippin costs. It has a cracked screen and some cover screws and a hard drive missin. Your video about your 2011 MacBook Pro resonates with me.
The screen will likely be the hardest to replace. You might be able to buy a whole display assembly to replace for pretty cheap though which is a lot easier to replace than the display by itself.
Now I feel I really overpaid for my 2010 13" C2D model at $38 shipped, but hey it's my first Mac in like 18 years so I'm not caught up on what's worth what just yet. I didn't get a charger with it but I had one laying around came from a cheap estate sale auction (for like ten bucks 3 years ago I got that, a couple old iPods and iPhones, a car stereo, and some digital cameras), turns out it's only 45W but it works on the 65W model I got just fine, battery goes to 100% and lasts a little over 2 hours before it goes under 10%. Not bad for a nearly 15 year old machine!

Nice find! Really cool. i have a 2009 macbook i got for free! (from a famliy member) and i use it for small mac stuff (making installers)
Nice to hear. Did you use OpenCore to put modern MacOS on it or are you using an earlier version?
How can i also buy for that much prize to Central Asia I am ready to pay for shipping
Not sure if you can easily. Your best bet is to find a place that is trying to offload large quantities of them if you want them this cheap.
