If it has a warranty then return it, unless he can put a processor in, perhaps the Intel Core i5, and prove that it works.
Otherwise you are throwing your money away and getting nothing in return but frustration.
I would never purchase a used PC or motherboard without seeing with my own eyes that it operates.
I hope this won't be a hard lesson for you for future technology purchases.
