Says the machine won't start because the carbeurator needs to be cleaned,
Anyone who buys something that is listed with this line deserves what they get. You are relying on someone over the internet who either
A. Doesn't know how to work on a carburetor, and if that is the case, sure wouldn't know if that is the issue with the engine
B. Is telling you he "doesn't have time to just buy a new carb for <$100 and slap it on" SURE...
C. Knows it is bad, knows how to work on carbs, but is trying to get some money out of it
NEVER buy something that is listed as "ran when I put it up last year" or "needs new carb" because that is a lump of crap.

I think changing the blades out are probably a bigger pain in the arse than cleaning the carb. And if was only a $100 to do, he would have got it done.
I woukd have never bought it before checking to make sure. At least not at 800, maybe a couple hundred just in case you have to put a new engine on it. Unless it was a woman selling it, because they are dum. Once had an ex trade in a car just because she didn’t feel like changing the tires on it.
