It is something that based on where you live can really determine what is considered a good deal. I was thinking for that price there were definitely better deals to be had, but I guess not.
Is this tank a good deal?

Honestly that's kind of a bad deal for something on Craigslist but you bought it so enjoy it.
I've been searching KSL and Craigslist for about a year for a 180, and for $400, the one I got was the cheapest one in the state that I've seen so far. I looked at a 180 in my area a few months ago with a stand for $475, but the tank was in much rougher shape, and I didn't like the stand.
How is it a bad deal? I have also been watching craigslist for 180 gallon tanks in Las Vegas and Denver, and the tank I got was a good deal compared to the other tanks I've seen. Also the tank I got was pretty close to where I live, I would rather pay $50 or $100 more for a tank locally than have to drive several hundred miles to pick one up out of state.
Some of these cats don't realize we can drive 300 miles in one direction and still be in the same state. And pass maybe 30k people lol.

$900 jist for tank wow yea around me it's around $1000 for tank and stand .... so yea in your case I would of bought it used for $400 as well
I think Smitty hit the nail on the head. Good, bad, or okay deals are all based on your location. Around here I know of a place where you can get a brand new 180 for about $550 range. On the flip side of that I know people in other states that can't touch a new 180 for anything under $800. So it really depends on where you live it seems as to whats a good or bad deal.
With that said..$400 for a used 180 with dual overflows is not a "bad" deal by any means. Not a "great" deal, but definitely not bad by any means so if the seals look good I'd say go for it.

Oh wow where I am at you can get a used 180 for like 150 dollars or less. With overflows like 200
