Default Buy or stay away?

I found this pro system for sale for $100 it would be a 5 hour trip each way to pick it up. Is there anything to know about these systems? Should I stay away from it for some reason? The seller bought a large amount of tools for a shop and this was in the bundle and they do not need/want it.

I also noticed this one on the bay. The other pictures show some burnt wires and the seller never states that it works. I emailed them but I have not gotten a response. It's about 600 miles for me and for $100 I would buy it (I have a company truck so it would only costs me time) even to rebuild it but who knows how much it will get bid up to.

I'd do a search of the manufacturers name and see what ya come with. You may not be able to get parts for it.

here is the pic of the burnt wires that I didn't even notice. How bad you think this is?
It's not hte $100 but the 10 hours of driving that will suck if it does not work!

those look more like the air lines
power lines are on top

but I'm with HARLEYDAD last thing you want is a pro gun
that you can't get parts for .
do a search on the manufacturer.

You sure the manufacturers name is correct or possibly the spelling? I tried a search and had no luck.

No I am not sure of the makes name that is just how it was posted on the ebay listing, I also Googled it with no luck.
I guess I will wait and see what happens I bid on it before the burned wire was pointed out to me. With any luck I win it and it works......
