I saw this for sale near me for 649. It is a 60 gallon. I feel like at this price I almost have to buy it but what do you all think?

I'd confirm with them they aren't aware of any leaks... or have them hold some water in it to confirm... nothing worse than dropping that kind of dough and having a leak you didn't know about...

but the Kessil, pump and skimmer have some value
 
not sure but I darn near feel the skimmer and sump are worth more than the asking price not to mention 80 pounds of rock and the kessil
The trigger sump caught my eye along with the kessil. I love cube tanks, so I'd go for it. Looks like a Nyos skimmer. Those three pieced out is worth enough on the used market. Shipping the sump is a pita tho.

P.S. bring cash and weazel down 50-100$. I bet you can scoop that for 550, as no one is buying except if it's a exceptional deal currently.
 
The overflow looks.. junk? I can't tell what is going on with it but it don't look good so I would plan to replace that.

I do not care for the rock. it looks a bit boulder to me... like maybe it was once live rock and dried out... doesn't look like the typical dry reef savers type rock. I would be suspicious of it. Mostly that it was once live and dried out, maybe needs acid bath.. but honestly it is ugly looking rock so I would replace it.

Other then that it looks fine if you don't mind that a cube tank will limit your fish stocking (I would mind!).

The light and sump alone is worth almost the price. Its a fair deal - Not a steal. Offer $550
