Is this a good deal?

Used and asking $1,000, new is $3,500 after tax.

This would be my first offset stick burning smoker, as I have used a Pit Boss Vertical 3 for 4 years now.

Wasn't planning on spending more than $500 on a used smoker, but that price gap is tempting. I have offered $500 and $750 but, seems like they are firm at $1,000.

Should I go for it?
