A local a$$ clown is trying to sell a used, but in nice shape, 1990's CCR200 for $400.00!

Am I out of line thinking the price is a bit high?

The main attraction for the CCR2000 is the sweet 47P Suzuki engine.  However, for $400.00, it will not be a happening thing.  Particularly when I can buy Tecumseh powered SS machines for a fraction of the price.

I wanted to get one of these engines.  The engine is bulletproof, the new ignition module is rare and will costs as much as new engine.

I thought there was a fairly inexpensive aftermarket ignition module available for that engine.  Or am I confusing it with the Toro/Lawn Boy/R-tek engine module?  

I haven't done a lot of research on the 47P so, I could very well be mistaken. 

Nonetheless, I've converted to using Tecumseh HSK8xx and TH139 engined SS machines, other than the one and only Toro I have.  Which hasn't been out of the shed once this year.   Not sure if I'd classify the Tecumseh two strokes as "bullet proof" yet.  However, considering the use/abuse they've been getting whithout so much as a whimper, at the very least, I'd have to say they're pretty stout.
