Some small dents are possible.
Major damage would be a pain. It may be repairable, but wold be a significant hassle.
It might depend a bit on the shipping cost, added to the purchase price. However, even a badly damaged frame may have some residual resale value.
I wouldn't count on the handlebars, brake levers, and shift levers being worth much, but the rest of the groupset should have some value, depending on the actual wear.
It does look well used, but not necessarily used up. But, all that MUD? The question is how abused stuff is. Scratches? Lack of maintenance?
