Trying to get a Frankenstein, should I buy this?

I'm trying hard to find a Sony refurbished phat model with ps2 backwards compatibility, I may be wrong but this one seems like it might have been serviced before due to it having the 08 serial affix for pal region which means theres a chance of it having a more reliable cpu.

The only problem is that the seller says it already has the YLOD, but it only costs about £30. Is it worth buying for a chance I can salvage it or at least swap parts of it into another phat PS3 to get a working frankenstein?
