Default Passenger Door won't close?

How hard is it to fix a door that won't close? Is this Jeep worth $700? Sorry if this has been answered before, my searching skills aren't the best. Haha

Well that depends. Why won't it close? Is the mechanism froze, broke, etc. Was it in an accident and the door is tweaked?

Get some pictures of it and post them up.

Default Ive seen some shoddy jobs on hinge repair.

If its been hit, look out. most places dont have true frame machines to fix a uni-body right. The one I bought had an awful hinge replcement. Had to jack it up by the door and re-weld it. Or it could be simple.

Thanks everybody, but the guy didn't respond to me asking if it is still available, so I guess I don't have to deal with it. Haha. Thanks again
