$21K is right in line with Kelly Blue Book for sale by a private party in Alabama. So the real issue is what is the mechanical condition of the car.

A couple of thoughts... You;ll need to confirm whether the IMSB actually failed or whether the repair shop found it was wearing out when they replaced it. Many owners replace the bearing as a preventative measure and find the original bearing was near the end of its life.

If the IMSB actually failed, then be very cautious. If it was merely wearing out, then conform if the IMSB was replaced using the LN Retrofit (ceramic) bearing. If yes, then get a complete PPI from a reputable source. If all is well then, you'll have to decide whether you think the price is fair or want to invest the additional time searching for a better deal.

Best of luck
