I'm in California, and here there going for $3500 to $4500 on craigslist so your about right. Go for it, but before you purchase it take it to the nearest shop, and have it checked out from the top to the bottom. I had a friend that brought a raptor 660, and didn't know the frame was bent, and he brought it used a Bert Megga Mall offroad supper store out here, they sold it to him knowing they did a 21 point inspection test "they tried to trick him". I also had a few frends that brought Banshee's from Craigslist, and had to get the motor rebuilt, because of main barring where going out hum thats why they brought them for $1200 bucks. I brought my DS650 and it was perfect for $2200 no issue, but 3 years later I need more power so I can give the raptor 700 some hell, so I bumped it up to 105.5mm aka 730cc "whatch out know" Good luck Tiger.

Ask the owner some questions about how they took care of it. you can usually tell by the way the owner talks about it whether they cared for it or thrashed it. check for maintenance records too.
