For the second guy if you can ask him what chipset the motherboard is you'll probably have a good idea on what the processor is.  I remember your post a little while back about the first computer; did you ever ask the guy if he mined on it?

Second guy kinda seems a bit more sketchy to me. 750W PSU, not stating what company and efficiency rating. Nor does he state all the components, which frustrates me when people do that. I'm leaning towards guy 1 for now, mainly because of the case =P, and listing all parts

2nd guy sounds like he has not enough knowledge. Find out the case, exact PSU, what storage, have him send pics or if you can provide us with any
