sounds like a fair deal, if you have the time to do the work yourself.

Naw bro switching frames isnt a big deal at all. Just start from one end and go from there. Its just nuts and bolts.

Switchin frames is real easy. Once you take the plastic off a blaster, there isn't really much left.

I would say for $1000 its a good deal , changeing frames is real easy on a blaster , but you also stated he put new bearing on the frame......make sure he put new bearings on the good frame cause no one would put them on a bad frame , check the comppresion on the motor to make sure its still good for a while. Good luck.
