Sounds about right to me, too, Ron! Higher total time, average paint, damage history (repaired), About $23K, tops. The owner wants you to pay for his used radios. Never pay that much extra for used radios, especially since there may already be signs of problems. Unless you want or need the radios, the only thing this airplane has going for it is the engine. $500 right from the get-go for a replacement (used) front strut, too!
John, keep in mind, you've already picked out the positives, or you wouldn't be here. Our job on the forum is to balance your viewpoint. Sometimes that means we pick out the negatives! We're not saying it's a bad plane at all. We're just saying the price is too high.
