Should I buy this second hand Epson L1300 STD worth $95?

Purchasing

Hello, I wanted to ask for advice if I should get this printer off of FB Marketplace. I want a printer for my art and photography so all I need is A3 and 6 colors. While I am financially able to buy a brand new model, I prefer to buy 2nd hand esp if it has repairability anyway. Disclaimer that I am not from the US.

So a couple of points

  • $95 sounds like a good price right?
  • They said it's only been used in an office since 2022
  • I'm able to verify the serial number in my country's Epson website
  • They've sent demo printing videos and everything looks okay
  • They said it's been deep cleaned so the 'warranty sticker has come off'

What do you guys think? What else should I ask, or what should I look for when I go to pick it up from them? Thanks!
