It's a good deal as long as it works and doesn't need to be repaired.

Sounds more like the thing is too hot to handle if you only paid $80.00 for it.... good deal if it works and is not hot.

Also depends on how it looks. eg. uninstalled via pry bar etc.

The latest Slash series amps are at V2 and I've heard that JL will be discontinuing the Slash series. So, an original 500.1 Slash used is probably going to sell for $150-$250 in mint condition. Ya. That's a good deal if everything's legal.

Pretty sure it's "...How he got into my pajamas, I'll never know"

"I never forget a face, but in your case I'll be glad to make an exception."

He didn't have an Allen key, but he did have a pair of bolt-cutters?
