I am starting to look for a forklift for around the shop. There's one
on ebay that has brakes that do not work, are they hard or very
expensive to fix? I know nothing about forklifts.

It's about an hour away from me, or should I keep looking?

I don't know much about forklifts,
but the question I always ask myself
in these situations is whether I want
a project or a tool.

Looks like a project.
