was this a good deal?

I am a full blown Newbie, but I have been looking around for used stuff and came across this on ebay. It went for $545. It was according to the seller 100% completely built in terms of hardware and 80% for software. Was this a good deal?

Hi, I'm also a Newbie and happened to be the buyer of the hexacopter in these post. I also have a Phantom so the hexcopter is intended as an upgrade. But because I'm only familiar with RTF, I'm very interested in your opinions in terms of how good a deal these is. These is the link to the ebay page so you can give it a look.
