If you can go look at it in person, as opposed to buying blind over the 
net, I'd look very carefully at the liquid cooling system, checking for 
any evidence that coolant has started to leak, or run down inside the 
case.  Best option might be to pull processors and the power supply to 
look closely at those as well as the inside of the case, but doubtful 
they will let you do that prior to a sale.  Check which cooling system 
is in there...Panasonic is probably a plus.  Though I've got a dual 2.7 
with a the Delco/Delphi system that has no problems so far (knock on 
wood).  If possible, get them to start it up and smell around that part 
of the machine...or for that matter smell even if not running, as the 
odor of burning antifreeze is distinct and lingers.
