from what I saw it's not been spammed with Asian content yet, so in this regard it's worth buying because it's clean.
Unfortunately, I couldn't check the backlinks because I have no access to link checkers, but the free version of Ahrefs shows some backlinks, and a 27 DR score, which is decent.
The only other issue that remains to be solved is how many hands this domain has changed. From what I know (and I might be wrong here, so don't quote me on this), the more owners a domain has had, and the more domain registrars it's gone through, the lower its SEO value is. Whois says it's bee hosted on 4 different servers in 16 years, so I don't know what to make of this. It's not good, but it's also not very bad, I've seen domains that have changed servers 15 times in 8 years lol...
Anyway, taking all of these things into account (and assuming that the data is accurate), I would personally buy this domain, but being the cheepskate that I am I would only pay up to $200 for it at most. Whether or not my offer is insulting to the owner I can't say (because I don't know how much people value their own assets), but this is what I would pay for this domain personally. YMMV of course...
