Just wanted to buy MacBook 12 2016 with cut in half ForceTouch flex (the one when You open bottom lid which connects both halves) But seller unable to switch it on as he says it is responsible for keyboard (power button does not working - but all I can see is charging battery logo when he connects charger) Is it true or keyboard is somehow damaged or even something more. All I could see is that flex cut in half in the middle. P.S. As I can remember there are always some “gold contacts” on motherboard in MacBook - just to short them and MacBook will switch on - where are they? :) Thank You Bart

Buying a damaged system is always iffy! Unless you understand how to fix your system, I would not buy it. And it would need to be very cheap before I did. You run the risk of loosing not only the money you paid for the system but also the damaged parts if there is something deeper has gone wrong here.
