depends on who you ask, me not so much but I know sammis go for a bit with some goodies. ad says "lockers f&r" ARB's? ($$$) or welded (free) add up the little things and make an assesment, make an offer. worst they could do is say no way, but times are tough you could end up with a killer deal.

 oh yeah for $4500 you could have a very capable Yota

edit: its still on sammi axles

Sammi's are becoming rare so the price has gone up, I sold mine for $3,000.00 a couple years ago with half the stuff that this one has. I agree with KYOTA though on the cost to build a rig comparison. It costs a lot less to build an awesome Toyota than a Sammi, or just about any other 4x4.
