This kinda begs the question. When you have an engine that is over TBO, is it worth buying the plane, or should you just move on?

Trade-a-plane was offering a 152 that was fairly close to me (a 152) that had 2400 SMOH on the engine. Since their spec sheets showed that the TBO was 2400 hours I decided not to pursue the plane. Besides, the seller was asking the same price for a plane with a lot more time on the engine. For future reference, what should I do?
