The only thing I'd say about buying it on your own instead of from a camera shop like KEH etc. is condition. People can list a camera as being in their opinion 'good' or 'excellent', and well, maybe it's not in such great shape after all. Or they may not have really known the actual working condition and figured it looked good...
I've bought used from KEH, Adorama and B&H, Pittsburgh Camera Exchange (AKA Bernie's Photo), Midwest Photo Exchange, and Pacific Rim Camera. If this one doesn't pan out - as long as the lens is in good shape, and you're getting the lens and body for the price of the lens, I wouldn't feel like I was out much if this body turns out to be wonky; shouldn't be too costly to get another body if you ever needed one.
And there's no such thing as too many film cameras.
