looks ok....is the price ok
read the reviews ...if they check out ..then find out current new price ( lowest )
then expect to pay 50% ( for good condition )
crafter are quite reputable i've got one myself ( les paul junior copy )..no probs

when you buy though its per guitar....what condition is it in etc
if it looks like its bin on a bonfire dont buy it unless its ex hendrix

the price seems ok..as far as the un-amplified sound goes it should be ok
you really need to hear it yourself since its all very subjective
why cant you hear it ..is it an internet sale?
at the end of the day you might be better off trying a guitar out before you buy it
there must be loads at your local music shop
