Does it just need a recharge, or a complete AC system rebuild?

The seller claimed there was just a "kink in the line" and that she got a quote of a few hundred dollars to fix it.

I suspect she was misled by a tech somewhere, but it wasn't really relevant to me as I understood that the AC was broken and don't anticipate keeping this car for tooo long. If the GF wants to get it fixed that's her business
