Scope is junk. I wouldn't even factor it in the price and ask them to take it off. Might be able.to.knock.more off the price that way, and take your savings to ebay and get a deal on a used Leuopold.
That said $495 strikes me as pretty low for a 700 BDL. What kind of.condition is it in? Id check.it.out good. Look at bore, from both the muzzle and chamber. Check out trigger, check barrel and stock fit. What shape is the stock in (take.it.off.and check.it.out) and check out that trigger.

(interesting, I checked this out this morning. I had posted this from my Kindle Fire. I assume that's why so many periods are showing up).
