Default Imac didn't work out.. need opinion NOW

So the guy selling the Imac apparently blew me off so I never got that. I found another guy selling a Mac Pro with Two 2.8 Quad Xeon's, 320gb HD, 2gb ram, 8800gt, wireless mouse + keyboard for $2100 in cash. I looked on apple and the retail price of this computer is around 3k + tax.

I just need to know if I should pursue this because he is a local seller and I have already looked at the computer, and it's only 3 months old in immaculate condition.

Well, you know most people will tell you that you can do better [performance wise] for the price.
Then again, the price and trying to find a ST board. Anways,

If that's what you want, I'd say go for it.
Ask him if the warranty is transferable, if it's not, he should take the price down. As if the rig has parts in it that fail, that money out of your pocket.

off topic: didn't you just sell your entire rig to pay bills and rent?

I wouldn't get it, but that's because I have no use for something like that.
