If you can inspect it before you buy it, and the seller doesn't have a lot of negative feedback on whatever site he's on, I'd say go for it! It's WAY less than what I paid for my (cherry) second G70...!

Sight unseen, seller unknown, no recourse if you are unsatisfied with its' condition, I'm not so sure... depends if you can afford to lose a few hundred quid or not.
