Good price on shipping.
Suggest you do lots of homework on rebuilt, salvage and destruction titles in general and in particular with the vehicle you are considering. Without before and after pictures, verifiable no water damage and a solid verifiable knowledge of actual mileage there is not much worth beyond that of nonwear parts.
I congratulate you on factoring in costs of fuel and lodging. While it does not lower the value to the seller it does increase the costs to the purchaser.
