Should I spend $45 fixing an SM-T217S ?

Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 SM-T217S was given to me. If you plug it in you can see faint bars on screen. Responds to power button. Repair Universe sells LCD for and its battery for .

It shows up in Odin so I'm pretty sure it works otherwise.

Is it worth spending on? I can do the repair and consider the time spent on it fun.

Thanks,
