Seems alright to me, talking USD? just search up all the parts and see what it cost him to make

I personally wouldn't do it. The price sounds like it's revolving around the 1080. If you were to take a look at prices similar to his, you'd see the reason why people are selling their PC's for the same price. If it's just the case with components, I wouldn't bite.

 

If he went on to include the mouse, keyboard, monitors, and other peripherals, I'd probably accept it for the $1300-$1400 range if I'm honest.
