Thanks all.
My contractor acquaintance recommended the saw and mentioned it had the more rugged fence Craftsman used to build but agreed that even though it looked it near new shape it was not worth 500. 300 maybe.
Considering all the advice, I think I will wait for that Rigid to go onsale at Home Depot. It has a much wider table surface and will be new with warranty for close to the same as his asking price.
Fred, to answer your question, he gave away several blades to his son so it just has a rough ripping blade now. Wasn't a big concern as I have several good blades already.
