I'd ask if it comes with 2 buckets and 2 carboys. It looks like it might be just an upgrade. If it come with both, it's not a bad deal IMHO.

Agreed with Edwort, if it comes with 2 fermentors and two secondaries, it's not bad, but otherwise you can get new for about the same price...

It includes a beer ingredient kit so I think it is a good deal.
