basically its an arcade sysem comes with everything the buyer said they bought this on 16/2/09, and its going for £72 buy now deal.

I heard that consoles made at a certain time are less likely to get rrod do you think this will be ok...? buyer said it had hardly been played on

the only real way to know its a jasper (stable) is by the voltage on the back of the system and power supply... thats what I had to do to get mine... you'll have to research some on Google b/c I've forgotten most of the voltage models.

Even though it might sound like a good idea, buying a used 360, especially off of ebay, is kinda risky. Just make sure that you're really positive on it.

Make sure whoever you are buying it from has a "good rating" and positive feedback. I even read several comments on the seller before I make a purchase. Don't buy one just because it has good pictures :P

sounds risky. especially when you say its an "arcade that comes with everything" because arcades dont come with everything

I would only get it if it the seller has a really good seller rating. If not then I would save up some extra money to get a brand new Arcade version. Well actually, if it were me I would just buy it new because I hate having used stuff.
