You have already agreed to purchase this machine?  So have you already agreed upon a purchase price?  And if so, why the question regarding what to pay?  Or, are you intending to re-sell this washer?

It's a beautiful machine for sure, but I'm confused by the wording of your post.

Have you seen it in operation? No leaks, or unusual noises?

I used this model as a daily driver for many years and until the transmission started to squeak/squeal beyond my tolerance I thought it was an exceptionally good machine. Washed well, spun well and was reasonably convenient to use( I prefer machines that,like the front loaders, I can set to pre-wash, wash, extra rinse and will dispense everything at the right time so I don't have to run down to the basement to add bleach, softener, etc., but this is a really good old-fashioned washer).
