Default used MGT... is it worth it?

sup everyone, i've got a friend who said he'll sell me his mgt. besides having a broken knuckle it's got a used wasp .26, new era rollbar, 17T & 52T gearing, maximizer bead locks on terra crusher tires(i think), shock socks, foward only conversion, AE side exhaust mount... that's all i can remember. he's asking for $450. is it worth it so far??? or should i demand $400. thanks for the help. later.

what would be a good asking price then? BTW... it also has AE factory team shock caps & brakes, Ofna Failsafe & AE red shock springs.

i'm no expert on used values of things but i've heard of people on here getting new MGT's for 389 or so. personally i'd eliminate any chances of getting someone else's problem and buy a new one.

he seems to be getting bored with it... i guess he could use the extra money for other stuff.

does he need the money? if so quit being a jerk off and help your freind out.

i guess i'll answer this ... if my friend needed money he wouldn't have to sell to me just to get a couple hundred. i'd lend him the money on the spot. yeah... he's been into the hobby for the last 6yrs. as for tuning and taking care of his truck, i wouldn't be interested in buying it if he didn't take care of it. as for answering my own ?'s... let me ask the question again... with what i described above, is it worth paying $450. it's a very simple question and i just wanted to here peoples opinion. $400's what you think... that's great, that's all you had to say.

Edited for bad langauge and Bashing.
