T3/T4 Turbo a good buy?

Hey I came across a craigslist posting for a T3/T4 hybrid Turbo with a .63 a/r. I don't know much about turbos, but this seems to be a common thing to do with the t3/t4. Anyway the guy says it was for his Datsun, but was never used. He wants $300. Doesn't have any pics. If this is in good shape, would this be worth it?

I nabbed a t3/t4 .58 trim for 185, compressor blades show a little wear from compressor surge and minor minor shaft play. could use a rebuild, but it spins great with no score marks on either of the housings, so it still has thousands and thousands of miles left in its life if treated well.
