does this oscope deal look good for a noob?

I know everyone asks this question. But Since I no nothing of oscilloscopes I would like an opinion from one of the seasoned diy'ers.

First I am gonna have to learn how to use this beast, Then I plan to use it on car amps, and probably a little sniffing on other circuits.

Its a craigslist link,

and thanks in advance.

Good basic scope for audio. Can't beat the price.

It appears to have been well cared for, although with used gear you never know until you have it. It's a dual trace with probes, that should be easily worth $75. But, offer $65. You can always "up" the offer!

Now I just gotta convince my wife why I am buying non essential carpentry tools 🙂
