Default GT4 steering wheel for $80

I was at the game store today, and there was a Korean forgien exchange student there trying to sell a logitech GT4 wheel. The store would give him $10, so I offered to pay him more, and he asked for $80. He has my phone number (gave my number to a guy :eek4:^230947623 :reechy: ) and will call tonight to set up a deal to pick this thing up before he leaves for Korea tomorrow.

Question: Should I try to lowball him to 50, or just wait an buy a brand new one?

$10 trade-in?! I know they always give you less than they will sell it for, but that's rediculous.

It is, but I have no way to tell if it's good or bad, and he could just jump the country with my money and leave me with an $80 piece of plastic...

Well if you're setting up a meeting to pick it up...won't you see it before you give him the money?

It's not like it's a big piece of furniture. It doesn't take a lot of space to store.
