Parts should not be an issue on a Syncrowave 180 SD for at least a

relatively recent machine.
These machines are also good about not breaking too much.
For HSM type work, an 80cf cylinder is fine and should cost you less
than $200 to buy with the argon inside.
You also need an argon regulator and flowmeter, which will add another
$100+ if it's not included.
If it's a water cooled torch you need a cooler as well.
The price is certainly no bargain, perhaps offer half of that price.
Rule of thumb is that 97% of Craigslist listings are overpriced. eBay
is also going int his direction, due to them lowering listing fees and
raising fees for items sold.
