His shop is only a couple of hours from my house so I could transport myself. Just not sure if this is a good deal or not....

I would go for a test drive. This way you know for sure that the machine feels good. I think the price is right.

I guess you have to look at what you get. What frame, how much throat room, is there a stitch regulator with it (if you want one). I know that until I got everything I wanted, the size/quality frame I wanted and the stitch regulator, it was almost as much as a 18" Queen Quilter used at my dealers.
If this is what you want and you can afford it, go for it!
