I wouldn't buy it at this price. Try negotiating if you are really interested but not more than 40. Make sure the remote is in good condition and not in pieces (between us, the remote is hard to find and a new one would probably sell for 30 pounds in shops)
It is a good receiver, at least there is no chance that it is a clone (I hope)
but it is an older model without USB connector or HDD option and the support is not as good as for the newer models.
A new 7020S costs about 300 pounds and 600pvr ~ 200 pounds and they can do a lot more.
Hope that this helps.
