I'm on a similar adventure with my piece and it hasn't been without it's hiccups and is still not quite complete, but with enough patience I think everything will work out in the end both aesthetically and price point. If you can pick it up for the right price and be patient, then it can be a worthwhile experience. However, if you're looking for something sooner rather than later and this purchase would cause you not to be able to jump on something better that may come along then I imagine its best to wait.
