What to check before buying

Repair documentation: iFixit's fan guide says accessing it requires logic-board removal.
Fan access: The fan sits behind a logic-board removal step.

Cooling

iFixit's fan guide says accessing it requires logic-board removal. A fan repair therefore involves more disassembly than an externally reached part.
