I'll be honest, I've never liked buying used motors. Whenever I buy older car's or trucks, I always figure I'll end up rebuilding the engine at some point soon after I buy them. I just don't trust anyone else's work and I like rebuilding motors. I'd be awful wary of an assembled motor that's been on a stand for 9 years. JMHO, YMMV! Good luck, NYH1!
^^^I'll second what he said.^^^ Nine years on a stand is an awfully long time. I'd consider it as a complete motor in need of rebuild and knock that price way down.
