Front lock isn't original. Other than that, the machine looks very nice, complete, and original. $1,500 "Buy it now" is about right. .10 cent machines can be quite trouble-some due to thin coins jamming, so if this is your FIRST machine, I would recommend passing it up for a .05 cent model.
I think the shipping is high by $55.00 at least, no way will it cost that much to ship and insure within the USA anyway, even with extra boxes and padding. If he'd have to ship to the UK, expect it to cost more.
Good luck, and these opinions are my own. Hopefully more people will chime in for you.

My quick look observations;
Someone has cleaned up the case;
award card and decal on side are replacements;
missing the plate that slides in behind the coin head (it's been replaced with a piece of sheet metal);
someone has tried to engrave some numbers/letters on case just to left of reel window (reminds me of when I was a kid and my dad got an engraving tool and marked up everything in the house).
Not familiar with this model, but mech looks complete and untouched.
Overall a nice machine.
