Used mountain bike - good deal?

[CDub87]

Hey, I've been wanting to get a decent starter mountain bike for a while now.
I came across a specialized rockhopper for $175.

Here is a link to the specs... http://www.specialized.com/us/en/bc/...005&spid=20862

So what do you guys think? Is it worth it?

Edit - looks like it may be an 04 model. The seller is sending me pictures tonight so I will know later for sure. He gave specs for the 04, but discribed a paint scheme from 02. Oh well... We'll see.
